Max’s Roxor Build

[Max A.]

Max, did you ever think you would be "THE GUY" for Roxor suspension when you starting putting yours together?

I seem to always be the “I know a guy” guy when it come to this stuff but that has always only been local.

It’s pretty cool seeing all of your guy’s roxors with parts made in my basement lol. I just love seeing the uniqueness of every roxor. So many different combination of springs, shocks, wheels, tires, etc to complete the kit.

Good to see you working on a fancy rig Max. If anyone needs help installing the max long travel kit, let me know. I will install them for anyone needing it.
I can get everything done for you aswell.
brake lines
shocks
gears
driveshafts.

I recommend this kit to ANYONE with a Roxor. The ride is second to none and the wheel travel is great. Plus Max is a feller who provided us with something he didn't have to by allowing us to use his parts that raced KOH on our rigs.

Thanks Marcus!

Update… Only the front is done so far. Custom HD front Shackles. 4.5 bds springs. Fox Shocks. I wish I had some cool wheels and tires to bolt on for pictures.

The aftermarket drop pitman arm is definitely going to be an issue on this one. I need to put a stock arm back on so it doesn’t hit the tie rod.

The owner wants to run a 37 or 40 and I’m a little worried about the aftermarket fenders rick just built on the Roxler. I had to do a little cutting on mine with 35s so nothing would rub at full flex.

Max, you ever gonna get an inexpensive lift in the new building. My buddy paid maybe $2500 for his a few years back. 4 posts. It can be installed on some big caster that came with it.

Working on it. Going to get portable single post lift whenever I can afford it. Seems like the best option for my small space.

I seen a few years back a portable front and back lift at the autorama in SLC. It was specifically made for jeeps.

My buddies has 4 posts and you may think it gets in the way but it does not. His also has 2 steel sliders that you can slide the length of the lift or remove them. They are great for placing a bottle jack on to lift one end of a car for say if you need to be under it and spin an axle but have the rest on like they are on the ground. Its very stable and no worries if your yanking and push or pulling on the vehicle. It wont fall off the lift. Also like when I am thrashing around inside the Mustang trying to get in with the car up say 2 or 3 feet in the air, I can do it and not worry if the car is going to fall over or off the lift. Ill try and a attach a pic. Oh and you can park a car under the lift with one on the lift, double stack the parking.

This one says its $3700.00. Id buy one if I had a place that was flat to put it. Even if it was outside, but my driveway slops. Oh and his came with giant steel casters if desired. I think his is an 8000 lb lift.

99% of the work I do is on suspension so 4 post lifts don’t work for me. I max out a highlift just to lift a wheel enough to change a tire.

I need easy access for pulling axles off. Room to move around and weld. 2 post lift is ideal if I had more room. Those single post lifts are awesome. Stability isn’t an issue at all and I can’t fit anything in my shop big enough to weigh more then 6k lbs.

There are plenty of cheap options but I want to get exactly the one I want. I’ll be patient and wait spend $2k more for a high quality lift that works better for my needs. Buy once, cry once.

I also like that saying. Lol. All I can say is bolt that sucker to the ground and safety chain the car to the platform. I have seen cars on their side before after falling off a lift and the 2 times I have seen it, THANK GOD no one was injured but the car.

As far as your jack not having enough lift for a flat, My buddy carries a freaking lumber yard of 6 and 12 inch blocks of wood whenever he goes out playing or just working around his shop. Lol. a Mini Paul Bunion! Lol. His saying is, Why Jack it when you can stack it! Lolol.

Well, you know there are accessories with every purchase. So the big pay out for the lift does meet Max's criteria but! Then the nickel and dimes start to pile up on ANY purchase. Lolol. Kinda like owning a Roxor! LOLololol.

That's a huge bummer. My 37" ag tires are not going to clear are they

You’ll need to do some trimming in the rear for sure.

While I wait for parts on the roxor I’ve been planning my next full build. 1957 fc150 will get similar a treatment as the roxor build.

Do I spy a twin stick set up in there with my old blind eyes?
