why did you decide to go with a single airbag, as well as what look like coilovers?? is it simply to adjust ground clearance or are there some other tricks?

got the craps with having a "stocker" :lol: so 3 weeks, a few "tricks" and presto......
the struts allow good off camber stability, and the airbag adjust ride height +/- 7" in the center of the frame, and also can act like semi hydro at full flex with the ability to force down the outer tire....neat trick....
just gotto find time to re-engineer the front end. :twisted:

OK , update pics later. Been a change of engine, turned up at mick's to find a 202 bolted in... now the suzi should have some torque. Bar work is 1/2 done, so next thing is to get the front end to work - serious need of travel required up there.... :twisted: any ideas on gettin' max travel out of bundera front-ends??? i've got a few tricks i might try, may as well i tried them all on the rear.

Good to see some new ideas. That rear shock setup is similar to what some of the Baja trucks run. How do you find the spring rate in the rear with what must be about a 1:2 leverage ratio onto the shocks? It looks like it might perform in a similar way to Sam Keck's old 1/4 eliptic...
