4x4 Hearse
Speedway and Jegs both sell them. They look like they would be very easy to make in the shop. I have seen home made ones on Pirate 4x4 in the past. I like the fact that you don't have so many sets of bushings to wear out. For now I have to go with old school shackles because I already have my...- sean1960

lets see some pics of your projects
This is our 1953 Cadillac hearse project. This is what 20 inches of lift and 44 inch Pitbull tires look like on a hearse. I've just got the rear spring hangers done at this point. Put the rear axle under it to see where the shock mounts need to be. Me standing by the bumper.- sean1960
