ever thought about a removable piece?

like something mounted to the frame or rear end that you can flip up


maybe make a bracket and mount to the rear end and put the same bracket on top on the frame so you can set a piece of square tubing in there with a pin and cotter to hold them in.. then the rear end will have NO travel?

My red colorado sat frame to rear end before I notched it.. and have no give at all

 

I have crazy good photoshop skills.. so I did this rendering to show you what I mean.. I know its awesome how real it looks.. no I am not avalible for hire

 

I think a set of caltracs or assassin bars would be your best option, short of a four link. I just don't think the solid rear suspension is the right direction. I'm sure you know, but a good set of bars will not only give you traction from weight transfer, but also uses the natural torquing of the axle to drive the tires even harder towards the ground, without squatting the body much. I think the basically solid chassis approach is cheap and may have a slight effect, but it's a bit primitive considering all the options out there.

 

Yea I agree...trying the washer thing out pretty much proved that to me. Im working on a set of bars.

 

Just spent a bunch of money, next week should be fun!

 

What ya get???

 

Some new ubolts! Big 5/8" ones!

 

oh joy!!
I have 5/8" ubolts on my samurai
overkill id say but they fit where the 1/2 and 9/16" didnt.

 

For the weight in the back right??? Lol.
Maybe ill be fast enough to have 4wheel traction problems lol (on street tires, I doubt I ever have that problem with 4 drag radials....)

 

Well it did rain today
