What's up dude! Well after measuring and figuring and talking and...... we decided it'll just be better to build our own 4 link system for the rear. I like the one Rod and Custom Motorsports has, but it doesn't allow for the steam rollers we want to run. I also don't like the shear tension placed on the two heims they run. These cars have big rockers with good metal in them so we'll build a rear cross member and tie the cage into all of it. It'll be widely adjustable, sit low, and work perfectly on the street, strip, and turns. Gonna run a 305 rear tire and a 235 up front on an 18 inch wheel.

I sold the 408 and am looking at some other options. Coyotes, pushrod Boss 302s etc. Not sure yet.
