    You've definitely got some solid fab skills anth:thumbsup:

    First custom made Inverted shackle design I've seen, and well It'd be hard to argue that anything you can buy will be as strong as your setup:cool:

    Thanks I'm going for a lower wide look and still be able to take the hard hits. I was inspired by DMZ & Giant Motorsports both kits are super sturdy and well designed :)

    Never could I achieve the awesomeness of that build lol

    Should be able to take anything you throw at it:cool:

    Low and wide kind of the like the stance of Paden's truck?

    Assuming you'll be adding some cross-bracing between the shackle buckets?

    Yeah I'm overbuilding for that piece of mind

    Yeah I guess you could say that his truck does have a good stance.

    My spare tire holder will tie into this set up very well. My goal is to still fit my Quad in the back or a couple dirt bikes
