Thanks Marty!

No, not a DSE kit. Just the Swivel Links, Upper shock x-member and upper shock mounts are from DSE.

The x-member material, panhard bar material, and lower shock mounts are from AME.

I did the mini-tubs the old school way (long before DSE Deep Tubs were available), as well as built the panhard brackets, 4-bar brackets, x-member, and load boxes.

I first did the suspension about six years ago. Since then many options have come to market and would save a lot of time!! Even though it makes packaging mufflers a little challenging, I do like the fact that I have a x-member going from rocker pich weld to pinch weld! I sectioned the rear frame rails to do this, and the SFC's tie in just in front of this intersection, should help stiffen up the chassis a bit!

Thanks again for the kind words guys!!

Anthony that looks like crap. I can't believe your actually going to use that hunk in your car. Come on man! It's got to look good and be functional...you of all people should know that. Take that P.O.S. out of there and I'll haul it away for you.

Hey that's what friends are for.









Yeah I'm totally kidding.
