Check out this older thread from pirate. It's a S-10 Blazer on 2.5 ton Rockwells. It's flex is pretty amazing. The main reason I posted this is that it uses a rather unique (red-neck) upper link with it's coil set-up (scroll through to find it). Personally I think any trueblooded redneck/hillbilly will be impressed and start to conjur up images of doing this to their own rig.

FAUXby4, send this link to Josh for me.

I'm already trying to figure out how to get some local 2.5 Rockwells for cheap so I can use them in the future. Think those air bagged 150 ton units on the dump truck we saw would fit?

Oh shiat, should I delete that? I've been out of the loop. When I saw the flex pics a while back I thought all was on schedule. SORRY Mike!

It has a few issues that are being worked out............like, it might be nice if he could steer that beast on anything but a driveway.......and lets just say sticking your feet out of the floor "Flintstones" style isn't an option for better braking!

Especially when you're that high off the ground, Fred was low enough to get some good leverage ;)

No con, maybe next year(blacksheep sheads a tear). I rather wait till it gets completly done and tested and josh is 100% ready to give me his product to be proud of. And yes, Adding Hydro and GM brake master cynlinder will fix it. HEHE. Ooooh, I forgot, a nice custom E-brake system.
