Jrock i might run my wheels staggered.

15x9 -25 fronts

15x11 -38 rears. Might fit juuuuussssst perfect.

 

Herectic. Thinking about throwing a fuel cell in the back.

 

 

Tanker

ehhh kodiacs truck is and will always be lower than anyone.

 

Plan for that is when everything in the rear is exactly where i want it. I will buy another bed raise the floor. clean it up like i want add extentions to the bed sides and hopefully continue to the front and finally finish one of my projects since ive always either sold or traded all my other ones. This is the one i will keep forever

Cool that you're going forward with the work.  I'm always curious when I see link setups like this where the bushings are completely caged by the tabs, and more so when they're poly bushings.  It seems like there will be a lot or torsional forces on the links when you hit a pot hole or go over a bump with one wheel, but there's no room for the bushings to deflect...? :confused:  Not trying to be critical, just see it a lot and from a functional standpoint it looks like a flawed approach.

Matt I 100% agree straight up and down no problem. But like you said lateral force on one side will cause stress. That set up will work just fine going over a caution bump even, but force one side of the axle up and the other down, Well we will just see how the welds hold. If I'm wrong then please explain.
