Alright all y'all.
Supposed to be a 2004 SU
Not sure of the model on this and question the authenticity of it as well.

First, what is this rear suspension. Upper and lower arm deal?

Second, does this car appear to be a true SU?

Thanks in advance.Screenshot_20251025-173001.pngScreenshot_20251025-172943.png
 
SU’s had a serial number stamped under the pedal assembly. You can also give Ed a call. But that rear assembly does look different.
 
It looks like it has SU parts but not an SU frame. The front looks like SU arms with the correct double sheer mounts but the rear is strange. Also, never seen one with the X brace in the rear. Plus the rear cage doesn’t look like it either.
 
I believe very few of these were made with the V Link suspension in the rear with bypasses. I've seen another for sale earlier this year. Red and silver one. Looks like this one listed on GD

Thread 'For Sale- 2005 Suspensions Unlimited "SU" Ultralight'

This is a 2005 Suspensions Unlimited "SU" Ultralight 5 seater long travel with a LS1 and a Mendeola 2D transaxle

This car has been well taken care of and sad to see it go.  I would like to see this car go to a good home.  Between work and our daughters sports (High level club soccer and Track) we have not been able to use the car and my wife wants the garage back.  This is NOT a fire sale and will not be give it away.  I would prefer someone to utilize and enjoy it.  It is an instant smile the second you hit that gas pedal.

The car has a mild built LS1 w/ approx 425-450hp, features a LS6...

You know, I was thinking I'd seen that before and now with this post it hit me. Those extreme axles....
 
If it's the car I think it is, it was one of the OG ones. Is there a "bulkhead" in the rear for the shocks?

I stand way corrected. Never seen an SU like this before.
