Dedicated to all my widened smoothies brothers and sisters. I took alot of inspiration to all these guys when building my suspension. I just love the staggered tractor look but it may leave a sour taste for some. Post up more pictures if you have any. I'll give credit where it's due, some of these pictures I'm not sure where i got them but alot are from the suspension FAQ thread.

Jiri, one of my favs
