Hey Dennis, I agree with you on the house work side!! I suppose it would be different if I didnt work on other peoples houses everyday, and then do run of the mill stuff on my own. I use my junk as a getaway from that stuff!!! Thanks man, I have been trying to get alot of small things sorted..... as soon my new stuff from vfn will be here and I want to get to work on that. I hope to get my seats mounted this weekend, and perhaps finish the other arch.
Your junk will turn out nice..... Man it looked tough loaded onto the trailer!!!! I forgot to mention I could see how much you moved the diff back, when it was on the trailer. I'm supprised that it didnt give you enough clearence..... I hope I can work it out on my junk!!!
Anyway, catch ya.

Dennis my man!!!!! That **** is KILLER!! Man I just blown away..... it was certainly worth the wait!! Now your cookin with gas, your not keeping up with the jones's, man... your two steps ahead!! Your ride gives me food for thought.... now you have plenty of room for your tyres!! I've seen lots of cars with the tunnel cut out infront of the diff, is this for clearence for the torque arm because of the ride height?? Lots of jobs out of the way, new door bars, seat support, mounted shockers, a shoot mount, you certainly had a big list!!

Thanks Robb!! I knew they would do a good job! The pics dont do it any justice. The guys really went above what I expected!!! They did alot of little things that I didnt think about to make it nice. It took up some of my motor money but its worth it to me and im still not in a hurry. Yes you have to modify the tunnel to clear the torque arm or you cant lower the car. It hard to tell from the pics but it sits a couple inches lower and I still have plenty of room on top of the tire!! Later

One little thing that I like is the mounting of the shoot cable.... wolf just cable tie it to the cage. Im going to do the little cable holders out of some molly like yours, very neat job... I still have some the perfect size from the window net.
So im going to need to cut the diff area open too.... that sounds like fun!! I can see that you have plenty of room above the tire now, is that the 12.5 still on it??? The shock mounts look a treat.... man we have some catching up to do!!

Thanks Dennis, got alot of work to do to catch you!!! I think im going to go with the burkhart diff, after seeing more of there work. I will try to tee it up for after christmas, as I still have abit to go before the rear will be alll set up. Did you go with there gearbox mount and torque arm?? Have you got any pics of the cutout of the trans tunnel, kinda dont know really where to start there??
Howcome you didn't go with the double adjustable sway bar?? I was thinking of going this way over the single that I already have.
Catch ya.
