Thanks Ron! I think the center bracing is made and needs to be welded on. Pics coming soon!

Thanks guys, I'm happy with it. It's been a long time coming. This was my frame builders first time doing an IRS, so alot of R & D went into it. Alot of going back to the drawing board, etc. At times, some things looked good on paper, but when he cut it out on the machine and mocked it up, it was a no-go. Lots of trying to make things work on the computer program he used, as far as, suspension travel and movement of the parts, wheels turning, etc. After all of that and about a year and a half later...here we are. We are waiting on the Ridetech triple adjustable coilovers to come in hopefully sometime next week. One last shot, a pic of the IRS cradle.

Now you're cooking with gas

I know that feeling a sweet new chassis coming your way. Now get to assembly.

I wanted to do IRS but just didn't have it in my budget.

When are you picking one of these up?

Looks good. That suspension is going to feel real nice.

Awesome Marcus. Frame looks great. Should be a nice "corner carver" when complete.
