Nice project Mike,

What are your plans for the front wheels? Before I decided to go with Forgelines I planned on using the same wheels you have. If I remember correctly they are 18x10 and need to be narrowed to be used with the stock frame.

Mike

My plans are to notch the frame and make make it work with a narrowed sway bar ,I will make my own control arms if I have to......
Right now I only losing 1/2'' to the steering stop on the lower control arm but it will hit the upper control arm on full lock.

tones2SS 05-29-2009 07:28 AM

Keep up the good work Mike.
She's getting there.:thumbsup:

Mikael A 10-24-2009 11:52 AM
