looking good bro. next time cut 45s in the crossmember where the very top bar meets the bars coming up. then you won't have an opening. and the gusset them for even more strength. but what you have should work fine. it is looking good man. as far as the bag mounts and placement i can't help. i haven't done it yet.

lack of tools got me on that one. So it should work then anyways right. I was just going to cover the holes with some sheet metal and patch em up. seems like it's strong as hell.

yeah it will work. i would still run gussets on the side of it for extra support. the crossmember helps keep the frame from twisting so the stronger the better imo.

so last night i ordered some gussets as well as 2 re-7's, 50 ft of airline, 8 gallon tank, and a complete fitting pack from bagshack. Also I should be getting the torision bag kit from suicide pretty soon.

4-link is for the most part done.

Any suggestions on bag placement?

Also can I cut the steel rod that was holding up the axle now that the 4-link is on, or should i leave it?

I would plan my shock mounting first, it won't hurt anything, just my opinion.

What do you mean by checking movements. Just the movement of the axle? Also anybody have any ideas for the shocks??
