Good eye!

No not yet, there are still several things I need to get done for the suspension to set it up properly, that being one of them, I also wanted to go with a full floating rear end. (I should have tried to buy Mark's when I had the chance)

When I get back on this car, and get the front subframe in, I'll get the rest of these issues taken care of.

When I was working on it, it became apparent that some of the additional features I would like on this car would have to wait until a later date. For instance getting the front weight jacks became a bit difficult to justify for the amount of movement you actually get out of them. I figured that since I was going to be the primary driver, and have access to weight jacks in the rear, I'd already be starting with easier adjustment than I had before.

Another item I found challenging was finding the right person to install the adjustable sway bars. I had never done it before. I spoke with HRP World, and they would help make sure the right parts were measured correctly and ordered, but that was as far as they could go. I still would like to implement these on the car, but until I get back on it full time, and find the right shop here locally, I will work with the one on there. Who knows it might not need any adjustment.

I know this is a lot more information than you asked about so sorry about that.

I do appreciate anything you see that you think needs to be brought to my attention, thanks for doing so.
