the sickest frontier ever just got sicker.
three link rear completed.
we are still working on finding the perfect spring rate. right now, i am riding on a single 250lb spring with no pre-load. king shocks is swaping springs to work with me in finding the perfect rate.
IT DRIVES PHENOMINAL!!! 5000% better than leafed sprung rear! haha
we will be doing two tube braces gonig straight across the hoops which will also carry the spare tire horizontally in the bed.

Wow!...that looks good!

Do wish we lived closer. It would be fun to take the trucks out and see what works and what don't.

it might be hard to tell by the pic, but all of my tabs are 0.5" steel.

the tabs on the pumpkin don't see any side-to-side stress. i have heims on each end, and the track bar won't allow for that. and check out that track bar support. all grade eight bolts as well. that ish ain't goin nowhere!

we have to get the rear spring rate dialed in. we are also going to do hydro bumpstops up front. theres not much room up there, so we are going to have to integrate them into the frame.
i might run 37's when these xterrains are spent. i will definately be going with a tire with a stronger side wall. i really want to try a set of bfg cralwer t/a's. i have heard lots of good things about those.
