Default my first 2.2 scaler

I have a ways to go. I just thought I would post the progress so far. I plan to bring the body down by the rails and maybe go with a 1.9" setup. enjoy.

How much steering do you have? Looks like your tires are gonna rub on your bottom links. Probably won't be a problem with 1.9's. Let's see some more pics when you get the body mounted lower. I've always liked black trucks.

Nothing rubs as of right now. I am running stock TLT axels. I haven't 100% decided where the links will be. I might make a bracket that drops down from the frame to mount the lower links. I still have to make a tranny brace and I might integrate them all into one piece.
