Yea, originally I had no intention of going that route but the more of those I
see, the more I like the idea. I've been looking over Justin's photos and have
found a few things I may have done different including a few things he changed
afterwards that I was thinking about when I first looked at his (like moving
the upper shock mounts). I don't know if you saw any of his photos but I would
have expected that truck to flex a lot better than it does. I've seen Jeeps
with the Clayton suspension (with shorter links) that flexed far more than I've
seen in any of his photos. Something seems off in the geometry, but I haven't
been able to put my finger right on it yet. He still has a pretty neat little
trail rig there though.
I was just looking at some photos on Otter's page yesterday of the Toyota he
did and there were a few things that he did different that really stood out in
my mind.
