Not sure I dont have the rear yet so it is not down and situated yet but it looks like it will with maybe a little rolling of the fenders.


NRC-Motorsports Thanks, Just wondering how much do you guys charge to do this? I didnt even bother asking anyone because I figured it would be high plus im alot prouder that I did it myself

I believe we get around 1800.00... my pop's does the pricing, so he would know the exact number.. its deffinetly not cheap, but on the flip side its a pain in the *** to do as i'm sure you know

Thanks guys, Yes The opened parts are boxed in now and In the empty spot I welded in 2 3" x 1" steel tubes to help with some support since it is really thin steel thats left and I wanted to make sure no problems where there. Ill get some more pics of the finished job when my panhard is in and the spring perches are in.
