Default You Wanna Hook at the Track? DBRODS & Mini's

skeets 4 link

Jon the owner of dbrods & mini's did my 4 link figure i would share what it looks like and the parts that are used :






























you wont find this 4 link anywhere, its custom made, jon does his own work and welding and everything, just from the pictures i can tell he takes alot of pride in his work. the waite to get the truck back is paying off, i should beable to pick it up this saturday !!!!!


The outcome and the weight that was removed will make this truck a TRUE 11 SEC daily driver

tons of weight reduction and perfect weather. so far with the scsb he hasnt removed anything and the weather hasnt been so perfect at all.

looks like the weight savings will be a wash IMO. lose the leaf springs but add coil overs, and extra brackets. traction over weight though IMO. cant wait to see the results.

have you thought about sending the converter out for a restall?

nice set up. i dont see why you guys dont stick with leafs though. ive run some intense times on them. i never hit my big second shot at the track but it would have went 10's easssyy.
