Upper A-arm mounts are done. We also talked about a brace strut, as the Tiger Cage won't connect to the firewall, so we have a bung on the top of the A-arm mount. Should add quite a bit of rigidity for both the suspension and frame. The frame will triangulate the firewall and each side in a H configuration. I do this on my high speed 4wd builds that take 15' whoops at 70+ mph.

The welds continue to be amazing and metal prep looks like it will be beautiful with either powder coat or electrostatic charged paint. You can also see that the coil over mount will have multiple adjustment points, same as I do with the Class 4 trucks we've built.

Love the description you gave about throwing it in a corner and vomit. At times I wish all roads had great corners to throw cars into.

Keep up the progress reports with pics.

Rod in HB


I have not read many using 5th Gen factory parts on a 2nd Gen. Just kits by other manufacturers. We'll see what this takes to get it done, Scott may turn it into a kit as well.

I bet it would be a popular one.

Yes, mid shift TR6060. Need to make a shifter for it. Using a 4th gen Fbody center console on top of the trans tunnel that Scott Mock will modify to fit.
