Default Pics of the new rearend setup!!









Yes it needs to be painted, and yes it will be a bitch. But I couldnt paint anything with the amount of welding with the relocation brackets, WolfeRaceCraft Sway Bar, and other crap.

Swaybar, rearend, will both be gloss black when I finally get everything taped off.

Spohn Torque Arm, Wolfe Racecraft Rear Drag Sway bar....and yes, that exhaust is on the street. The coating came off my headers, and my bullets are a little beat up, but it works. VERY LOUD!

yikes, that's gotta be a loud beast, especially since the pipes are so short and all. I had bullets on the street with my x pipe and had to change them out after a while.

I love that torque arm!!! I'll be adding one soon! I have been looking for one that bolted to the cross member but I had never researched the spohn unit. I also admire the sway bar set up but thats gunna be a while before I do that.

HOLY CRAP!!!!!

Its finally home. After months of waiting, chewing my finger nails, and copping a bad attitude with my wife.....the bitch (the car) is now home!!!!!! Just took it for its first little test drive around the block. I got bad looks from one neighbor and one person sitting in traffic. It's loud, obnoxious, and just plain mean!!

Transbrake works great, rearend has no leaks, squeaks, or whine. Stay tuned, cause the bitch is gonna be at the track come April!
