Those jack stands worried me . . .until I saw straps and 2x4's. . . .I give it until the first gentle breeze or a bird lands on it. KAPLOWIE parts everywhere and hopefully nobody gets flattened
 
I'm confused, is that a hitchball holding the rear end to the frame?

Ok, I am not retarded. :D Nor am I looking to die.... Its on there,,,,, trust me. I live in Oklahoma where our winds rarely get below 20mph.

I promise you its more stable than a truck sitting on jack stands on concrete, you can do whatever you want to the rig, IT WONT MOVE. I have 6 tie downs on it. The trailer is wheel chocked also.


So now that is out of the way.

Yeppers the rear suspension is a one link, I am using the trailer hitch as a cheap "grade ball" type suspension. Ive seen dozens of these an alot bigger and meaner rigs than mine and they work and they last. I even put a grease zerk in there. :icon_thumby:

Thanks, Todd S.

Looks interesting, I would definitely toss in a zerk fitting on there, I've seen that set-up a bit and it works great...

Looking forward to seeing it wheelin :icon_thumby:
 
Looking good! can't wait to see more!
 
I guess these guys havent seen or heard of a one link before...someday I plan to one link a rig. What are you running as a coupler to the ball? I want some of these :D
