hey JGF100,

i wished we could find out witch frontend is under that white truck. the two tone blue one says its running the m2 and the white one doesn't tuck hardly as much tire as it, that is if its aired all the way out witch i would assume it is for a pic to have been taken. what do you think?

Thanks for all the great pics. what did you do with all your old set-up? that is exactly the set-up i want to run.

the wheels on the white truck above are actually very affordable. i have a freind that called them and priced a staggard set of 20's-22's,grey centers, $1870 to his door with hankook tires. $2000 with toyo proxes.
I got rid of everything from my old setup, I sold the 4 link to layedout72 and I cut up the old frame and gave it to the scrap metal guy. :cry: I still have the front bags and shocks but that's all.
Hey td do you know were your friend got the price for those wheels?
Thanks

This one is bagged on dropped ibeams. The camber is not bad for ibeams.

man marz, i remembered seeing that truck for sale on e-bay and i never saved any pics of it. so a few days ago when i was still planning on doing the bags on the beams set-up i searched the web for an hour or two trying to find pics of that truck so i could look at the stance. needless to say i could'nt find it anywhere and gave up, and here it is making me secound gess witch way i want to do this airbag setup. it actually looks relly good to have i-beams under it. if you compare it to the white bump in the posts above it realy looks like it to may have i-beams under it to. they tuck just about the same amount of wheel.

im going to post another pic of the white one here just to compare their stances.

i don't know it looks to me like the bump may have the narrower track width thats common of the mustang2 but the white bump dosen't tuck nearly as much tire and wheel as the two tone blue one, Hmmm... i don't know what do yall think?

It looks like the white one has a m2 setup just cause of the way the front wheels look pushed in like my truck. As for the stance mabe the white truck doesn't have dropped spindles?

69nvf100,

i don't think you will find any. that is somthing your going to fabricate or have someone fab for you.

marz said he could fab them up, but he's a few thousand miles away from me :cry: .
i think if he had a frontend with dropbeams and we were ready to give him the correct length measurment for the mount he could fab it up and ship them. but im sure he doesn't have a i-beam frontend with drop beams to use as a mock up. o yea and ofcourse we would send him a nice fat check for his services :lol: .

This one is also nice! I remember I sent this guy an email to see if he wanted to hang out and talk about our tucks but he never responded, he only lives 50 min from my house.
