Just caught up. Im amazed at what people will release to customers when building a cage. Ignoring the safety factor and even the fact that you cant see it, I would be too embarrassed with the finished product to let it go out. Looks like you are in good hands now.

Question about the rear frame. Are the front upper control arm mounts going to stay single shear?

Nope. They will be double shear every where. They didn't put the plate in there yet.

Seems like I remember on another build they did there was this neat little eccentric type thingy for suspension adjustments. Definately double shear. Wait till you see it, so cool!

Thanks for the comparison photos, placed one after another.

The comparison makes a statement. What a difference.

Rodger makes some NICE frames, and it is great to see this back on track!!!

Does anyone here happen to know what the width is of the factory C6 transaxle? From Hub face to Hub face? I am considering trying to use a transaxle on my 69 and want to know how much I would have to narrow it to fit the wheels I already have.
