    I agree about looking into a different mount as well. The shackles need to be at a 45 degree angle (under load) or so the opposite way according to the speedway catalog. I would move the mounts outward or get a shorter spring.

    Other than that I think it is bad ***.

    I like stupid low!

    I like them all...slammed or not. I would have to agree with some that airbags seem a little awkward on a rod. Not sure why, I used to think bags were cool but now just to hear someone let their air out irritates the hell out of me...ssshsshhhhhhh! Gay! Your truck looks cool, I even like the sweeping frame and as far as a cartoon, hmmm dont know about that. Did the same person that came up with that term come up with rat rods too?

    Blake....glad you didn't take my critisizm about the spring mount the wrong way.

    I put bags on the back of most of the cars I build. I use it for adjustability. I can change the rake easily. Plus I can haul stuff without the car bottoming out.
