I talked to the builder - the owner was not there . It's always a tough call when you see something that is not right ,do you speak up or let the guy suffer for doing something wrong , maybe hurting himself or others . He has the weight of two engines sitting on coil overs designed for a front end with only one engine and they are attached to the frame with one bolt each . I pointed this out to him and his attitude was "That's the owners problem ". I just said " ok " and moved on , hope he doesn't kill someone when it fails .

While at Carlisle truck show I spotted this coil over attachment . The car had nothing in the back except the gas tank . As you can see he has two plates welded to the frame with a bolt attached to both plates with the coil over attached at the center of the bolt . At a minimun this is what the 2 engine truck should have .
