After the car was sitting for a while I realized I was going to be way to busy to tackle some of the stuck on the car. Also, acknowledging my remedial skills with a welder, I decided to have the suspension, tubs, and sub connectors installed, as well as have a new transmission/driveshaft tunnel fab'd up.











Front fenders and core support also got fitted.

*Wheels and motor are for mock up (not mine)

When we were installing the suspension, we modified the rear quadralink crossmember and the track bar mount to suck up into the body a bit. We also used 1/2 height bushing in front. In the end I think the extra time/expense was worth the stance that we ended up with.

Here is how it sits as of today with the ride height set.

Heh... Is that what happens when boredom and money get married?

Jed's, what exactly are you doing for propulsion?

That's sick if that's ride height! I love it! Welcome to the site.
