Looks good!
Now that is a front bumper!! haha.

One thing, I sure hope in the second to last picture, that you are going to put another u-bolt on each side of the axle... Only one per side is alittle scary!


Oh, and what kind of frame is it on? It doesn't look like a Ranger frame.

did you notice they are on diagonally?

your shackle angle needs a little tweek as well.

other then that, looks pretty good. i dont see any "scary steering" worthy components on the few suspension shots there. props on quality workmanship.

The rear u-bolts are temporary till i get my ride height right. Every peice of the suspension and axle builds are hand made by me. Took about 3 mo. but so far turned out pretty good. I doo plan on making some new rear shackles and shackle hangers for the rear and puttin hydrualic assist steering on the front. A couple million dollars more and i'll be done. ha- Thanks for lookin
