Can't wait to see more of the progress pix!

Don't have a lot of pics while at the machine shop, but here is the new shorter front strut assemblies


With bag


Low test



Rear setup was more an experiment in what is possible with existing. Has yet to be proven to work (ran outta parts during the install...)


Simple tank trial setup in the rear


Rock'n the 70's rake


Stock setup still in the rear while the things get sorted
