Not that expensive compared to the DSE parts,

Thats a power steering cooler,

The subs come out real nice, and powdercoated too,

I'm trying to call them SMD parts, Scott Mock Designs.

Is that the bare frame only or did that include some of the suspension & steering components too?

I comes with the splinned sway bar, steering links and some other hardware, know more tomorrow, I found one side of a C6 suspension for right at $200, looking for the other side, might have to buy new, The rack comes from any parts place, 82-93 fox body power quick ratio rack, now theres tie rod ends and poly bushings to buy,

I start unwrapping stuff from Brown Santa before i've finished signing his battery powered clipboard! You're getting too old, Steve.. You need to be driving this thing, already.. There's been a lot of corvettes showing up, parting out on craigslist. If I see an 05+, i'll let you know.

It was delivered to me from a friend of the builder, no problems with any of the parts, it want from the back of a covered truck to the back of the Envoy!

I have half of the suspension, buying the rest next week!
