    I know how that goes... you get a project about done, functioning smoothly and sell it for them to put the completing TLC into. That kinda stopped for me when 5 tons dried up and I didn't do the Stewart and Stevenson or HMMWV. I have a A3 deuce build that is expanding to almost nothing...

    Rear suspension for 5 ton bob

You may also want an on-off for...

    Rear suspension for 5 ton bob

    I believe there are a couple of posts that show rotating them to a position that they will work....sorry, no more details. I'm doing my A3 deuce with the 105 perch's because of side mounts. good luck.
