Whoa, pull the chutes! Just kidding. I had to scramble to find a place that could do the powdercoat in time, so I can get this installed. I really want to this truck finished by November, but its hard to stay motivated in 111 degrees. I have not unpacked the spindles, so they are not in the photos.

Re: Wideride C10 IFS

Agreed! Very nice. What's the deal with the tie-rod ends? Are they modified stock pieces, or?

Re: Wideride C10 IFS

The other thing I notice about this is the sway bar is linked to the upper control arm. Is there some sort of benefit to this?

Fatgump, I hear ya on the 111*, I try to get out in the garage by 7 so I can still breathe, and try and wrap it up before one.

Truck looks great!!!

Re: Wideride C10 IFS

Yes, we link the sway bar to the upper arm. This allows a longer link for smoother transitions, also not so tangled up around the steering. Thanks Gump.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
