All good things take time! I hope that you got some stuff done on the weekend!! Didn't get to much done here.... had to catch up from being busy all last weekend! I did start to cut the torque arm hole out, but I was wondering if the small build up at the bottom in the rear seat well was on either side?? and I cut out the top section and im right up on a support between the two rails, im not sure if Burkhart may have removed or cut yours back, as it's hard to say.... but your cut out looks slightly bigger than mine.
Any help would be great!!
Catch ya.

Timmy where have you been my friend??? Hey Robb I will get you a pic tomorrow. I hope you get your parts soon!! I started sanding on my car today. My buddy is going to paint it for me. Not my favorite thing to do but has to get done. My poor car is four different colors and looks like a junker!!! Later
It has been crazy at work. I am still waiting on some of my suspension pieces to show up. Actually I am waiting on just about all of it. I ordered it July 8th. As soon as it shows up, I am back at it
Wow! What a great build you have going! Subscribed!
When the 29.5 became legal, I had to raise the car to get the added clearance I needed. Had to also raise the front a tick to keep it somewhat level. I may do some additional fender work over the winter and lower it some. It drove dead straight when I had it out a few weeks ago and hooked pretty well. Its also nice to not need helper ramps to load and unload from the trailer.
Sorry for the hijack with pics. Back to dhracer's build.
