Re: 2 for 1, My son's first Square Build

Thanks everyone for the comments. I am surprised Korbin has not been on here to post what we learned over the weekend. Heatwave posted up the judging results from the show and his truck got 3rd in his class! We just wonder how it would have done if the interior was completed.

I'm not sure what the actual measurements are, but here is what we did:
Front has the crossmember raised 1.5" in the frame, 2.5" drop spindles and currently on bags, but will end up with 3/4T coils with at least one coil cut. The rear is a flip kit with the front hanger raised about 1" and the rear hanger is flipped so the shackel swings down instead of up like a stock truck. Guessing it is a 5/7 or 6/8 drop.

Thanks, now we just need to finish the interior.


I worked on the power windows last night, got all the wiring hooked up to test before making the final connections, everything works correctly except the passenger window does not go down. With just a battery hooked across the leads from the motor, it works both up and down. Must be something in the harness that is not making connection. I will work on it more today after work.
