Stretching the wheelbase -- ala a Jakes Rod Shop version??


Or are you going with the offset 3 link?



Just FYI -- I did the "Bryan Cope Salt Lick Conversion" to my Barbecue last summer.

I'm not sure if Sutton works on front wheel drive vehicles, but rest assured I'll be contacting him.

A decoupled 3-link for the rear drive (handle) could have substantial benefits negotiating the 2:1 slope in the backyard.

Did you add a composter to your BBQ?

There's a separate room inside the house for that.

It's all about the camber guys. Sieg, put so much negative caber on Mr. Murray, that the inside of the wheels rub the dirt.
