I can't wait until extreme positive camber is the next "Stance"

I no can understand suspension geometry.

I like it! But what about rear wheels?

Solid axles don't do camber well....

Came here for the picture up top, and found this. Off road Rangers make me happy. #Dingerbait

Basically this is what happens when you add beyond-stock levels of suspension droop to the old Ford I-beam suspension layout. The only thing I'm having trouble figuring out is how they've taken enough weight off the front to show the droop. I don't see any jacks or hoists anywhere

That looks awesome!

Yeah, I beam suspensions are weird but awesome. They also allow for a lot of travel without having to make a lot of expensive changes.

Unrelated, because alcohol: you changed your avatar.

Indeed. Swapped it in the "Kinja's eating avatars" fiasco the other day. Might end up going back, we'll see

no motor?

Unless he's running some seriously stiff springs I don't think that would be enough for that dramatic of a nose-up angle.

Maybe puled the engine, put it in the bed...

39" pitbull mud tires will make much positive camber on a ttb dana 44

They jacked up the front end and then just removed the jack: the extreme positive camber of the drooping suspension causes the edges of the tires to bite the ground and hold the truck up high. If you roll the truck forward or backward, it will come down.

This phenomenon happens with pretty much any car with independant front suspension when you jack it up and then let it down while the parking brake is applied; it's just magnified by the increased suspension droop on this particular truck.
