At least my pics are better this time and not all hazy and grainy Grego.

Scott, if you're familiar with the C5/C6 spindle, the end of the axle goes thru a spindled hub. At the end of the axles, they are threaded and a large nut screws onto the end. Well, my builder ordered the axles about an 2" longer to accomodate going outward with the track width. As you can see from the pic with the lower control arm, there are four holes. Making the track width adjustable outward up to 4". But, of course we know I'll never adjust outward 4".

Of course, you know everyone here loves pictures. Thanks for showing us what is going on.

I think it is a first Heep. I have never seen any of the other chassis builders do it. Not saying that it's the invention of the light bulb or anything, but I have never seen it with any of the modern, muscle car chassis builders.
