Where did you get your uniball kits for the control arms you made. im planning on making my own a arms and barelylegal was a choice till i heard they were having problems with getting orders out and some other etc.  this build is lookin cool as hell i also would like to build a square bronco to be bodydropped and have a full frame. Keep it up its bad ass work.

absolutely gorgeous build!!! those body styles are soooo killerthe rear bags look like they will not live long, very "stretched" base when fully inflated, any future issues with this or am i reading into this totally wrong?

Thanks for the compliments guys.   The upper control arms are bolted that way to the frame so that I could adjust the camber and adjust for any bumpsteer that I might have before setting everything up.  It's different than the way most people do it but it is just as safe IMO     My uniballs came from HM-engineering, as did my delrin bushings     The back bags are not something that I'm super happy with but it's what I had to do.  The bars ar as long as they could be without having to sit on them, lol.  I need 18" of lift to untuck my wheels in the back.  I could have got this lift going a little closer to the tire but due to the length of the bar and how close the bar is to the side of the rims the bag would have hit the tire.  I could have sucked the bars in more towards the frame, but I want as little body roll as possible, and I was considering other ideas honestly when I initially designed there position.  The good news though is that the bags are mounted so that the endplates will only be roughly 2 degrees off from one another at ride height.  I have no intention to lift the back of the truck that high unless i have, such as getting into an odd driveway or in case I need to change a tire

No updates, I've been rebuilding the garage at my house so I don't have to drive 30 mins just to work on the thing
