im just curious, but what kinda shackle setup is that on top of the frame rail on the yotah with teh tube on it? from the angle of staring at the ass, it looks like its just resting on top of the framerail lol

first of all i did the work my self:awesomework: and naw it's not hitting the frame rail, if you look closely there is a good 3/8th gap between the spring and the bottom of the frame rais

that pic was old shorly after i bobbed 16in out of the front of the bed. moving the wheel base from 128ish to 112ish chopped of the frame rails behind the shackle and cut the bottom of the frame on an angle so it would not come in contact with the spring

Wasnt tryin to step on your toes or anything, if i came across negative. Just never seen like a frame rail flip kinda setup. More curious of how it performs really and what ya made ya think of it. Thanks

the reason i did this was to lower the truck, i had 5in springs in the rear and 3's in the front i frenched the front rear spring hanger into the frame and put the shackle on top of the frame it dropped the truck a good three inch's i hate yotas that are lifted to the sky, and it's deff shitty when your wheelin with such a tall rig, tuckin 37's makes a rig look good

i will try and find a pic of when i first built the rig to compare heights

Orangecrush87 · Jan 27, 2010

ah so it is a frenched way to do it. Cool idea! :awesomework: im an other fan of 37s and low cog looks like a fun toy

dove'd85 · Jan 30, 2010

:beer:

note the rear bumper is not done, i have to add one more tube on the drivers side, and i also made a mount that goes from inside of back of the frame and captures 3/4 the way around the bumper on both sides

BrokeYota22 · Jan 30, 2010

Looks sweet, im liking the simple clean look of the rear bumper :awesomework:
