Nice work, dude! Dig the three-link and stock car parts! Methinks one of the next things that will really annoy you on the autocross will be the whack angles that strut front end provides in relation to camber. You can just make your own SLA later . . .
We seem to be operating with a similar cycle: Thrash car, rip apart and drastically change, then repeat.
That looks like NCM... Fun place to race if it is.
Can't wait to hear more feedback on how you like the 3 link with the panhard bar. Nice work on the homebuilt transformation...
Thank you! NCM it is! Haven't got the chance to run on the track, but I do love running autocross up there.

Thank you and a SLA front is what I would like to do. Griggs has a bracket that will bolt to the front spindle, to allow an upper ball joint to attach.
Looking good man. I got rid of the black fox a year ago or so but I'm getting my other one put together now. I needed some more motivation so it's nice to see some posts from you!

Build as you go! That's what I try to stick to.
If you do your own SLA this is the "budget" drop spindle I've seen people use on homebrew Fox SLA's that is priced in between a $50 SN95 spindle and the $2500-3000 Griggs and Cortex spindles.

The fronts were rubbing at full lock and with a spacer (can't remember the spacer thickness off the top of my head) and I didn't have enough wheel stud to feel safe.
So longer wheel studs are in the future.
Put the old wheels back on and hit the local autocross and I was able to get a shot of the rear suspension during one of my runs. Check it out!
