Re: Barn raising

After more snags than I wanted or was expecting I finally got the bed on the tires on and the brakes working. Took it to work on Friday to work out the kinks if any and to see how it rode. Still need to get the rear dropped a bit more, but for now it is a 4 & 4 drop. The way the geometry worked out it is going to be difficult to get the last two inches and still have enough travel in the shocks. I thought the bed was going to compress the springs a bit more than it did so now I can probably get one more inch but not two. I am ok with a 5&4 drop if it means a much better ride. Side pipes still to come, which will make it appear three inches lower than it actually is

For some reason my computer is not letting my upload the photos will try later
