Upper Link Tower

I've been working a lot with my buddy Ben on the new tower design. Without his help I'd just be using Kentucky windage.. Reason for the change is with the steering ram mounted mounted to the rear of the axle it has to pass the clevis and tie rod through the upper link tower on the left side of the rig.

This is a front shot showing the coilover location when the left side is at full bump when the other side is at full droop. Worst case scenario for clearance.
Looking to the left side from the center of the axle. Shot shows the ram passing through the tower.

Rear looking forward. Again the clevis/tie rod are sitting inside of the tower.
