nice work!!..I have a Lincoln with a 5 link on air ride for sale here on
youtube…click on my name to view
Good video on this job. Ridetech is good stuff.
Very good video guys! Keep up the great work.
Tanks Guy now i no
Nice! (y)
That’s a pretty mangled rear beam… I’m guessing they made sure the frame
is square, but that beam is worrying. I’d have fixed that first before
having a company come in to do a custom suspension.
Crazy question but how do u find ride height with out tires and rims? Cause
i want the kit but I want stock body stance
Measure three times, cut once?
Nah, measure once, cut to fit.
Now how about a video on the front end!
I should have done it that way building a race truck or 2 a few years ago
would have saved a DAY measuring by just tacking the tube in center.
shakes head K>I>S>S method works best every time
Surprised you didn’t put the diff mount for the panhard bar closer to the
pass frame side to make the bar longer. Other than that, I want a kit then
something to screw it to.
Great job fella’s. I have a quick question. Now you guys C-notched the
frame, do you have to modify the bed after C-notching the frame?
was wondering that as well. im kinda thinking they must be lowering the
ride height and that c notch is gunna give them the clearance they need.
but then again the reason im watching this is cause i dunno either 😛
VERY VERY GOOD VIDEO .GRREAT INFO THANK U SO MUCH
it was just a tack so it wont move on them.
Why would they weld the axle to the frame first?
Where can I buy the 1.125 x 219 round tubing ? I checked with Triple S
Steel here in houston and they dont carry it..
Great video!! Keep it coming!!
Good demo,we need more on this stuff on YouTube about 4links.
how long are those link bars? i want to do the same setup
@tmk5522 oh, so that was suppose to represent ride hight? seems pretty low.
very nice information u helped me out with all my answers i had
perfecte job 🙂
Yeah, i’m thinking they previously found that ride height would be perfect
when the top of the axle is welded to the frame, (must want to slam it on
the ground) @0:56 They have a spacer in place, so that must be a ride
height they were trying out, but wanted it lower in the end. So get your
measurements and ride height set. Weld axle solid to the frame in ride
height position (including pinion angle). Then fab up your link kit. Just
my guess. For what it’s worth.
good job thank.
@vcarreon17: Depending on the size of the C Notch, yes and no. By the looks
of this C notch, they will either have to begin cutting into the bed or
raise the floor of the bed. However, there do exist some notches which can
be welded in which do not come up past the stock location of the bed floor.
All depends on how low you want to go.
