Does anybody have a comment on the rear inverted leaf springs? I saw a picture and it kept my attention, thinking seriously on making this mod... or anybody knows where info is available?

thanks in advance

that's called quarter elliptical spring setup. Inverted leaf springs is more for low riders :D

If you do any street driving I would advise against this

It works well for a trail only rig, but if its going to be driven on the street at all, its just dangerous... seen someone try to drive one on road once, and it was VERY scary.
