i just dont get using i beams, the spindle is on a fixed beam, theres a horrible camber change, theres no tellin how bad the bumpsteer would be, you'd have to ride it in one specific spot. meanwhile you have a clip like im doing for forrest, it has 7-10 degrees of neg camber layed out (pending alignment, has plenty of lift, and will have very minimal bumpsteer. call me wrong, but thats thinking outside the box.

well..the hood shut, and yes, that was with the nec clearnace..this isn't my first canoe trip guys...been fabbing for a longtime, was a certtified Ford Tech, and a cnc machinist, wyotech grad ...trust me......I'm also a professional hot rod builder......with the design we had come up with for the front end...it cleared the tire by about 2 inchs on top...there was pos. camber issues, but we were thinkin of solutions when my brother got discusted...the 5 inch b/d did clear the frame alittle too much, and in retrospect, we coulda went less...but yeah it layed frame.....before the body drop....dunno if on the 22's though...it was gettin set up for 20's the first round....like I said before....we did beams because EVERYONE said it couldn't be done...remember 22's on a dime....been there done that...:

I've heard this before, and its in the m/T: the m/t who says it can't be done is usually interupted by a m/t doin it....

its been done guys...sorry to burst all ur bubbles...numerous people have layed their eyes on it..unfortunately....the show public may not because my brother moved on to other projects.....someday....

well lets see this "design". post some pics im sure some of the shops on here that make brackets would love your design. i could care less if you did 22s on a ranger, especially with ibeams. just seems to me your acting all cocky since your in some rodders journal or some shit and i really dont care.

James...I never said anything about bein in magazines...My buddy James did.. I don't feel the need to throw around my accomplishments....I just mentioned I have been doin this shit for a longtime....We started with AIM beams..but the didn't work due to the CAMBER change, width, etc.....like I said, blast me all you want....Wasn't bustin ur trucks..READ it..it says ur thinkin bolt on shit......ur truck looks cool...as does Lo enuff

there are no more pics on here...the bracketry isn't done...like I said from the start..it was layed out, and tossed aside....a lot of the stuff is gone....so...I'm ot bein cocky..I just stated it could be done..then got attacked...like I also said..typical SS mag fan fare....thats it guys...no hard feeling to you...wish you guys the best with ur rides....

i deleted the profile...reason there isn't anymore pics....I thought the truck scene was a family....I actually brag to people that thr truck scene is the best one..the fact that no one cars if you got as min, fuill size, lifted, etc....haha..guess I'm wrong huh....
