Way to much articulation, limit your shocks

I would recommend some cross bracing to keep the chassis from flexing under load and add some tubing about 3/16" under the pistons in the shocks to lower your rig and outside on the shaft about 3/8" to limit articulation, this will help a little with torque twist.

first, reduce the articulation alot. Brace up those TVPs. Build, or buy at least a rear 4 link. Get some metal lockers if you haven't already, some true beadlocks (or you can do the beadlock conversion on your stockers) and some better tires. What else you do from there is totally up to you. You can search around here, and follow some of the build threads to see the mods that others are doing. You can take it as far as you want!! Good luck Darryl |
