Good luck Bro.I commend you for being willing to discuss this in a public forum!

I see your point Ron about price. As a matter of fact, price did come up early, very early. So early, it was the very first conversation we had. The following 1 million phone calls (LOL!!) were not necessarily trying to get info on how to build it, it was a matter of trying to make it more affordable for me. Like I mentioned in my original post, Bryan and I discussed several options. Those options ranged anywhere from me supplying all my own parts to RS just building me the frame rails and I finish the rest. Other options were them just selling me their custom control arms, etc and I make my own frame rails to them just supplying me the rear clip and I weld it into my frame. Several options were discussed and Bryan is an awesome guy. I give him kudos because he tried everything he could do for me. He was honest in even telling me when something would not work. Never was my plan to gain insight and pick their brain just for info to spend my money elsewhere. To be honest Bryan even offered to buy my frame as a credit and then sell me the IRS complete frame. Now, if that ain't customer service I don't know what is. It still just wasn't in my budget. It sucks being poor. LOL!!
