"Scary Steering" website

This is a link to a website that has pictures and commentary on some vehicles with less than stellar steering and suspension setups.

It's entertaining to look at and you'll be asking yourself "What were they thinking?"

Here's the link: Scary Steering!

Good Lord!!!
I thought it was bad the time someone brought in a truck for me to work on, I looked at it and some "master fabricator" had used ready rod to make the u bolts holding the axles to the springs. That thing was a big cluster ****, but not in the same league as these.

A mandatory literacy test before purchasing a welder would go a long way in helping prevent such monstrosities.

OMG...How do they even dream that stuff up thinking it would be a good idea. Beyond the fact that all of it is 100% unsafe...It just looks stupid.
