Another shot of the new deep tubs installed.



Next, Eric begins the install of the Detroit Speed Quadralink rear suspension pockets. These provide the location points for the upper control arms.



Bottom view. Just needs the perimeter welded up in this pic.



The rear suspension also requires the install of the supplied rear crossmember as shown.

This bracket provides the mounting point for the transverse track bar which helps locate the rear axle side-to-side.




We will be using a Moser Engineering 9 inch rear axle assembly, with 31 spline axles and 3.89:1 gears.





Next, we begin measuring to install the Detroit Speed subframe connectors. These connectors run through the body structure to provide additional rigidity to the body shell. They require the removal of the seat brace, and then you cut a channel through the floor, weld in the subframe connectors, and then reattach the seat brace.
