Default Working out the bugs and real numbers

Well spent a little time measuring and making adjustments to the mess. Found a few bugs , the center section was 5/32s out of center, fixed that, axles bound at full droop,needed new upper shock mounts to rectify that now they bind at full compress, not a problem once bumpstops are installed. Now the numbers, droop from ride height 4" total wheel travel till axels bind is 8 3/8" but doubt all that will be needed will make bumpstop addjustment with the body installed. No need to do that twice, will stop travel just before the wheels hit the body.
Full Droop

Full Compress(or at least to where the axels bind)

trying to stay cool: Patrick
