Front suspension is pretty well settled in place. still need to add the bracing. Total travel works out to 16"
Had to rebuild one lower a-arm that was bent back a bit. 4 years old and a lot of rock hits on .058 wall chrome-moly tubing. did the same rebuild to the other side last year. i think i did this one in with the jump session last year or when i pegged a big rock outcrop that launched the front end last season.
new shock mounts below the tube level. still need to add some protective plating.
Fixed the starter issues and did a carb, air & fuel system clean up in order to get the LTZ to start and idle. it ran off bump start, but the starter and pilot fuel and air circuit was a mess. i'll eventually do away with the CV carb.

Going to chop the frame and weld it right to the back end of the Rockhound.
