Same could be said about John Wayne Gacey too. I think there is a point where one has to stand up and say enough!

This could be the one you've been waiting for Jeff....the one of a kind custom that you spend hours and boatloads of money on to bring back to assembly line quality.

I don’t like to knock others ideas, for the most part some of the coolest stuff has come form people that were laughed at when they proposed it, but called a genius when they made millions from it.

So after scratching my head trying to figure out what the whole concept was, besides lowering the ass to pavement level. I was thinking they had a spider them going here, but after counting the legs they only have a bug.

That rear is in BAD need of a sway bar!!!

I saw the same idea on the rearend of a Unimog over x-mas break. It had trailing arms, panhard bar, and one airbag centered over the diff. Worked pretty well, of course it swayed without the swaybar connected.

I think the suspension design would work better on a rockcrawler than on a street truck...

Funny over the weekend I actually saw a similar set up on a Toyota 4x4. No bed of course.
