Why not just buy the kit for coilovers and make your own coil buckets. Its $300 cheaper and the arms have jj's on both ends

idk I bought most of the kit used from rich. so I dont even know what the options were or what clayton offers.

and Ill have to make my own lower coil buckets now anyway cause I used the ones from the kit for the front.

for the upper just plate the frame rail and weld a peice of 2"od tube stock frt ds tube works perfect

for the bottom a chink of steel plate with the artec coil corection plate

then id just run a artec truss for the uppers and buy some offset tabs for the lower links thats basicly what im doing when i link mine

dam peer pressure

I cut the back up abit too high. Its better now but I never took a pick of it fixed.

i stitch welded it the best i could and filled it with seam sealer on my fenders. you can also use a floor jack to try and move the 2x6 a bit. looks good dude.

almost done with trans mount

now I just have to do some vertical bracing of the DOM and box in one side of each of the Xmember tabs.

a couple of the welds have to have a second pass done too.

I also think I have my 3 link numbers down.

Anti-squat- 156%
roll axis - 5deg
roll center- 25"
instant x - 107"
instant z - 36"

my links are pretty long probably more than 40" around 44 most likely. wont know for sure till I get the axle under the thing.

Who the hell bothers with link numbers?!?!

 

[chedisme]

well after my 4in of vertical separation fiasco I thought it would be smart.

LOL it looks like your AX15 to trans mount bushing adapter bracket has the same factory rust-bulge all of mine do.

F* that. I set my axle side to like 8" of seperation and frameside to like 5 or 6" and just winged the rest

axle side is 8 frame side should come out to 5. but well see when I actually start building it.
