Custom Chassis with canti setup
5 Attachment(s)
Here are a couple of pictures of a 69 i'm currently working on. It's going to lay rocker with 22x10's and still run a/c. I also changed over the C10 spindles to work with the mustang ball joints so I can run 6 lug.
Enjoy Jr |
VERY NICE........ oh and welcome. more details
|
Being the semi old guy that I am would somebody explain how this rear suspension works.

All I can say is DAMN!

How much lift will you have in the front? I have 10" of front lift. If I took my upper bump stops out or put thinner ones in I may get another 1" or so. They are limiting downward travel.
I like the idea of the rear cantilever. I'm going to try some bags with more stroke first. |
Looks awesome :metal:
|
NICE work man. All that stuff looks choice!

I'm positive. I measured it last month. I have airlift bags on the front stock spindles and SoLo lower a-arms. I get only 7 1/2" in the rear with firstones. I'll take pictures soon. Sort of waiting on my new RH mirrior, and my diamond cut headlights, and clear parking lenses. When I get all my stuff installed I'll take full raise, and dumped pics, Side to side, front up rear down, rear up front down, all at 145 psi valleycustom you'll have the opposite problem I have, not the same lift front and rear. It bugs me. It wouldn't be bad if I had a programable electric leveling set-up of some kind. That way one button you could come full up, by setting your height to the lowest level be it front or rear. |

I received three of them Friday at my shop and they are very well put together kits, I will be putting on on my truck this next week. |

How much for the Easy Street/Airlift Select a ride? All the others are pretty spendy. But to tell you the truth I like the set-up on Chassis Techs Touch Screen Controller way more functions and doubles as a DVD screen. |
Wow.
There is alot of work involved in that frame. |

I received one of the wheels yesterday for a test fit. For future reference for anyone running 22x10's you will need to run a 7" bs to clear the fenders if your bagged and bd. Here are some pictures.

nice work cant wait to see it finished , looks sic already!!!
|
curious as to how much you have to cut into the hood supports or whatnot, are those wheels gonna clear the hood? Bye the way, looks awesome.
|
wow the LA crowd is really getting down. I think I am the only one that doesn't have air yet.

Aha!I get it.The lower end of the shockwaves will attach to brackets on the frame right?When the bags airup it will produce downward force on the arms and bingo....orbit.Very nice work man,I'll be savin pics for when I wanna take the next step down to the ground. ;)

Here are some more pictures of the chassis. We are on our third style of wheel now. We ended up going with a intro twisted vista II 6. The people over at intro are awsome. Enjoy

Badass. :D
Intro customer service rules. Bryan is a great guy to deal with there. |
Cool stuff man!

instant favorite thread!! :phat:
WOW!! I'm not much for the lowering of trucks but I do appreciated creativity & fab skills. I'd go the other way with that setup, (so I could lift it up when off-road, & lower it somewhat for the street), but to each his own. The main reason I'm replying is to compliment the fabwork. Good Job!! Keep us up with your progress. Later, |
uniballs
Just out of curiosity, are you using 1" uniballs on both the upper and lower control arms? How do these bolt to your spindle? Are there spacers or bolts available to fit in the tapered spindle holes? The whole setup looks great!

That is some nice fabrication. Is this a show only truck?
