A good friend of mine, Ryan (owner and founder of the shop), his wife Jen, and I run a small fab shop in crystal river FL. It started with Ryan doing mostly drag car stuff; roll cages, turbo/headers, 4 links, etc. Then we designed a hydraulic suspension system for old air-cooled vws, and it really took off and got us a large vintage VW clientele. Custom suspension type stuff is definitely our favorite genre of fabrication, and we're huge fans of using hydraulics. We get to work on and build some pretty out of the ordinary stuff, so I thought I'd start a thread where I can just post stuff as it comes up. I apologize in advance for what will probably be a lack of drift related content, not much of it comes through the shop, but I'll do what I can to include drift stuff whenever I can lol.
I'll start things off with some lowrider content!
One of our customers sold his beetle (which we had previously built on our hydraulic suspension kit) and picked up the caddy! It was already on juice, but needed some refining. We built new front upper control arms, resealed the front cylinders, changed the front springs, correct some suspension geometry in the rear, rebuilt the pumps, rewired the batteries, and (what's pictured below) installed a chain bridge setup. The chain bridge is used so the car can achieve a standing 3 wheel.
Pics didn't exactly load in order lol, but you get the idea haha.
This guy is cool and his cars are cool 😎
