Re: [Project] "Fnlow69" PART II
Update 3/31/08
Well i re-did the tubing work, as i couldnt get the bag bolts out (guess i wasnt thinking). Anyways heres the new tube work, i like it better than the old tubing.....going to add a tube from the front tube to the back tube to finish the circle(hard to explain), and then adding a gusset to the mounts and calling it good? what do you all think?? ![]() ![]() ![]() Also got the front bags installed............. ![]()

Re: [Project] "Fnlow69" PART II
What is your defination of ride height? Some measure to the bottom of th frame while others measure to the rockers and a few people refer to the lowest point of the car or truck is the ride height.
Josh Ps. Did you get my pm?

Re: [Project] "Fnlow69" PART II
i agree with what abadsvt said, thats why i did mine the way i did.. but i think you will be alright. the tubing looks like it will be thick enough to hold. i could see it being a problem if the tubing was thin and you drive around like you have a monster truck

Re: [Project] "Fnlow69" PART II
No progress... been to busy...
the frame has about 1.5-2 inches more kickup to the front than a stock frame, will layout on a 28" tire (22" rim)

Re: [Project] "Fnlow69" PART II
Fully understand. Today is the first day I have had off from work since Labor Day. Been working 10 hour days (yup even Sunday) and going to school 2 nights a week. Supposedly this is only for a few more weeks, but things change faster than I can keep up. At least when I have the time I should also have the money to do something cool! And now, back to sleep...
