Like this one?

That is cool, but must stink trying to look out that windshield with 1/2 the engine blocking the view...

I think Paul should build something deer-proof!

Sarge, three link with panhard for the front...

people drive while texting and eating a cheese burger i think the seeing out the windsheild is overated

isnt that why they invented airbags so you dont have to look. i will say that is one large engine in that thing.

For which rig the Jimmy or the cab truck ?

Jimmy... (cab truck will probably happen so far in the future - I'm certainly not saying you're lazy, it just happens, ask me how I know- that anything I suggest will be "old school" by that time...)

Just a suggestion... seems more contemporary than radius arms (but I always think *Bronco* {no offense Danny/Pete} when I think Radius Arms... not to mention leafs, but the simplicity of leafs is nice) and yet still friendly to highsteer and a steering gearbox for streetability-ish...

I'm currently trying to shove 40lbs worth of engine, (beefy) structure, exhaust, driveshaft and 4-links in a 5lbs space under the 5.0L...

...while getting perfect 4-link numbers...

Sarge I will make you a sweet deal on an ext cab truck for your next build...

I'm going to be doing a longarm three link on the jk very soon.(parts are in the barn)

Alittle further down the line I want to put a gm 4.3 vortex in the sidekick.
