they look pretty close to what Birfield has on that 14 bolt.  I really like his set up.  Are you running Toyota axles ?  Will their be enough room to run the shocks on the out side ?

could you elaborate on this please?


All the rigs I've seen running it in the front have had full hydraulic steering.  When it flexes so far you might run into trouble with a drag link.  
I guess the new full hydro setups work pretty well tho, I see some of the KOH rigs running it and haulling  :moon:.  Its not just for crawling anymore.
