Some WE shocks and a locker might be in it's future but that's about it.
What's up with the tweaked steering rack? Would a power steering unit solve that problem, they come with different shafts and knuckles?
Or is it bent coming off the steering wheel?
I don't know..
I do know..the 5.9" of shock
travel..was my problem...plus speed ( haha)..
fabricater...pointed out alot of tweeked. .stuff
live & learn.....more livin....than learning

No problem with steering rod..or wheel...

folding..just past... top A-arm rear bracket.....
there's cross bar going to otherside...if that
...wasn't there...front end would of folded...
welder said..tricycles..have stronger frame..
than P5...
