Check out this sub frame! Not Skyjacker

Thats the first time I have seen the front of the rear leaf spring mount lowered! Look closely and it is an all leaf spring conversion.
Shame about the lose of clearance under the frame.

It was found on a European site by someone else and they are wondering who makes it.

That's Crazy, It looks like the rear shaft is about to fall out!!

That has no bearing on the subframe, A sye will fix that.

I remember seeing that pic quite a few years ago.

it doesn't look like the front spring hangars are a part of the subframe, at least he didn't paint them the same...

pretty cool idea, sure you loose a little clearance, but it'll let you run a flatter leaf pack with higher lifts

Odd. One would think that if he was going to relocate the mount, he might as well move it farther forward so he could use a longer spring. It would be interesting to see what he did with the rest of the mounts.

It looks as though the rear front spring bolts into the old control arm mounts. I think the sub frame does bolt into the back of it the strengthen it though.
