New rear from Burkhart 
Same quality as always but we had Burkhart narrow the lower control arm mounts plus integrate relocation brackets with a longer drop for the really low cars. This also allows the use of a more offset wheel without the wheel lip contacting the control arm mount.
That's a really nice piece, any option on LCA bolt hole spacing? I would assume they will offer that to the public as well.
So that rear end retains the stock mounting locations I would be guessing with the outside LCA bracket narrowed for more space to give the added clearance.
With that setup how much can you narrow it with the narrowed LCA bracket like that?

Thanks for the Pics MadMan. I know Chuck spent some time on this one. We can offer that to the public as well. The most Chuck likes to narrow these is 3" per side. With the right wheel offset you can still get a nice tuck.
Just a reminder, These are on sale right now.

So I guess they are basically narrowing it so you can bolt your rod end right in? Rather then having to run alum. spacers to make up the difference in width with stock lca mounting plates.

We designed it to run a rodend and 2 misalignment bushings.

Nice set up there mad man, I was just at Burkhart today and Chuck mentioned building that set up for you.
Super nice guys there, I was just in Decatur for an interview with Archer Daniels Midland and figured I was in the neighborhood so I better stop by, they showed me all around were extremely helpful.
I got to take a look at your car Steve, pretty nice set-up you got yourself there!

The nice part of these Burkhart fabricated 9" is they still accept a factory style torque arm. The other 2 fab 9s out there dont and it doesnt look like they will be legal for stock suspension classes.
