    Lots of "pure beef" in this build. I keep waiting for the truck to turn into giant hunk of meat.


    Good looking truck. Definitely throwing some coin at it.

    There's something I don't understand. When the suspension droops, the tire gets negative camber? So when the truck leans during a turn, that inside tire gets tilted out of the turn, opposite from a motorcycle?

    Ya this truck is beef. I am constantly amazed by how large the stock components are as I dig further and further. Only downside is that there still are no gears for its massive rear end. They should be out this summer but who knows. When the gears go in, Ill have to decide if I want to run an ARB Air Locker or g with a Limited Slip.

    Positive camber when the suspension droops (go have a look at some prerunner trucks gover over some woops and jumps). He had lots of negative camber there with the Total Chaos uca.

    Hope I got all that right haha.

    Thanks for the compliments guys! I am running the stock UCAs still because the procomp lift knuckles maintain the stock geometry angles.
