My wife just shakes her head and rolls her eyes when she see's me in the garage working on the cart. Same look she gave me when I was working on my Road king. She'll never admit to it, but I know she thinks there cool...lol

Here is the next round of pics, I have split them into 2 post. They are of the homemade front suspension lift.
The idea of the drop down control arm bracket was taken from a post here on BGW. I added some extra metal for the frame to rest on. The upper bracket incorporates a winch mount and the new shock mounts for the Gold wing air shocks. This set up moved the front wheels 2” forward and 2” wider.

Here is the second group of the front lift pics. I hope this is my last mock up. I have started making some trim to cover the lift. I will post more pics when they are done. After everything gets assembled and test driven, I will take it apart to paint the frame and body.
Please, If you see anything that I may have missed, feel free to let me know.

There is a lack of empty beer cans around that bugs me, but maybe that's why your work looks good.

As for the beer cans. 1st I'm to cheep to buy any. 2nd I was always afraid that that I would like it, so I never started. Besides, one case of beer = needed cart parts.
As for my work "looking good", it's no mistake that most of my photos are of poor quality. The reality of my fab skills are as follows. Poor cuts, poor welds followed by alot of grinding and clean up!
