    Here is a 2D rendering of how the rear ORI's will be set up. I should have about 7" to 7.5" of up travel and around 9" down they will be angled in 12 degrees. Now time to go burn out these towers and frame plates and get this bitch sitting on tires again :cool:

    No but they only take a day to build I just have to measure for them. The axle shafts are going to be the thing that holds me up. The ETA on those are the end of the month.

    Getting serious now. ;) Looking great Jerry! I am wondering if the panhard mount would have offset the leverage better with the frame mount on the driverside? Just wondering if there is some benefit I'm not aware of by having both the panhard and the 3rd link mounted on the passenger side rail? Seems like having the panhard on the driverside would almost function similar to having another triangulated link on the driverside and help balance the forces being put on the passenger side.

    Just a random thought from my inexperienced head.

    The front is on the driver side so the rear needs to be on the passenger side or i would have all kinds of problems. The 3rd link really dont care where its placed side to side the the separation of the upper and lowers that really need to be good.

    Yeah the rear end just fell together it was so simple when compared to the front. I was pertty impressed at the end of the day today seeing how i cut the frame off at about 4:00pm yesterday and have it pretty much re built in a day :cool:

    I'm going to cycle it tomorrow and see if there is any issues. If all is good is really just little things left to do and this thing will be ready for anything in its way.
