I looked to see where he lives, cause I'd go jump it. Washington. No wonder everything is wet.

Ill look and see what i have. Im going to build a tube chassis for it here soon. Im thinking about using the front half of the toyota body to fit over the tube work.....i guess a truggy.
[EDIT]
The pics arent the best and i am still in the middle of trying to place stuff so it isnt so cluttered but you get the idea. I change the link geometry so it climbs better. I used to straight lowers on top in the rear and lenghtened the front upper third link and lowered front and rear mounting spot on the frame. Im trying to make it more like i would set up a 1.1 but its kinda hard with this frame set up.
I have 4oz in the right front tire and 3oz in all the rest. I internally sprung the shocks with some springs i found at the hard ware store. Im running 20w oil in the shocks.

I love the low stance with the cut body. Its nice to have a place in the back yard to mess around/test your rig.
