I sat down and played with the numbers,so i get about 46 % anti squat ,because their is only a bit of weight on the back end,the srings are about 150 lbs so they are soft and i will fit an adjustable shock.

its going to be a 4 link rear end, parallel lowers and triangulated uppers
with as much adjustability in the links.

the fuel tanks being scraped and all the brakets for the panard rod and brakes. started on the 80 axle grinding the old stuff off.the housing for the locker is well passed its years and totally knackered.

looking good Cool

loads of brackets to clear off the 80 series rear! spent a mind numbingly boring few hours the other day plasma and grinding! rear locker looks dead easy to convert to air operation though Smile

Thanks for those lads, i prefer the single action,that has the spring return so the locker disconects if the compressor fails and its so easy to do, way better than electric . its easier than cable , thats made my week Very Happy

but im getting really bored with grinding the axles Crying or Very sad
