Interested in how you have finished off the rear corners of the cab????

This looks real good. I think I'll have a crack at this myself. Any other photo's you can post of the job would be invaluable.

She's a big girl at 2200mm , but i guess youve got rid of all the weight of the back .

It seems to flex allright. Im trying a few different spring set ups and its looking good. With the front working fully and the rear only compressing half way, was able to lift the front wheel 44 gallon drum hight.
Not sure what to do to the rear 4 Link or buggy leaf. Any thoughts :idea:

I say go the buggy first as its heaps easier to do than the 4 link and you'll get mad flex. Then when you're sick of it down the track go the 4link.
You will be on the trail quicker with the buggy set up aswell, less fab/ measuring etc. :armsup:
Would like to go buggy on mine someday when I have time and money. Might have to wait awhile though............ :cry:
