Starting the Rear Suspension

Will be using the rear springs to keep the rear axle located in the correct  position and using airbags for the weight and spring rates. Reversed the rear springs and sway bar for a better fit.

Chris had to readjust the stock spring locating pins on axle to get the correct pinon angle for the drive shaft. Also where able to get the dive shaft measured and off to the drive-line guy.  

Flipped and remounted the spring brackets.

Here Chris has installed the bar axle brackets, bars, and lower airbag brackets. Everything is tact welded in place till all the adjustments and testing of the travel of the rear suspension are made. 

This is the front view of the suspension setup. The front bracket and the bar frame brackets that secure the suspension  to the frame. The pictures and setup of the rear suspension is the truck at its lowest point. The ride height will be between 4-6" from this point. The design and engineering of the suspension was done by One Up Offroad. 

This will be welded to the frame and the airbags will rest between the lower brackets that are connected to the bars and this bracket.

Here are some different views of the setup. 

Not rear suspension but Chris has been also working on the new center trim piece.
