panel suburban guys
I've taken a break from my panel for a bit. But now I am thinking about the parts i may need when I get back to it. I wondered how you guys with factory frames lower the rear? I am toying with the idea of scraping all i have done and going with the s-10 frame swap but wondered what you guys with the straight frame do to get the axle up. Any help? Dave

Re: panel suburban guys
My problem is the frame is straight all the way across the back axle. I think the only way is too build a super c notch out of tubing.
I was wondering how to get away from the old rusty and worn out springs and hangers. I like the 4 link, and I forgot I have a bunch of pieces of one around from a long time ago. Not quite the same as that, I think that is the cpp one? Thanks for the inspiration and idea. Dave

Re: panel suburban guys
It's a 50 1 ton panel, yes the looong one.
I'm having trouble posting pics rite now, says server cannot be found when you click manage attachments. Will add later though. I did post a few pics when I cut the front suspension off awhile back.

Re: panel suburban guys
Any idea what the ART website is? I googled it and got 8 thousand art gallery websites

Re: panel suburban guys
sweet ride! take tons of pic's at different angles of the signage on it. that is very nice and would be a shame to sand off.
