DZL1 Gotta love a bagged dually.

I spent most of today working on the 6-Link setup. Welded up a rear "bumper" that the parallel bars will be mounted to. I also welded the link bar mounting tabs to the bumper and axle. The rear parallel bars will be for keeping the axle straight, and the front bars with the "dog bone" links are for raising and lowering the axle. Now i just gotta make the link bars and weld up the hub plates.

Made more progress on the rear axle. Added some gussets to beef it up a bit, I really don't want this thing breaking
