Good seeing you guys yesterday! This rear end is amazing I can't believe how good it looks, as everyone else says "It's a work of art". I'll be posting up installed pics today or tomorrow!

Parts are always coming in daily.

This particular customers housing has been done for a little while we just needed to get together for them to come down and pick it up.

^^^ you got it... those would be our tow loops. It is a great option for those of you that put the car on a trailer any time. It's well worth the little money we charge to install them in the convenience!

Lookin good! I had to beat the **** out of my texas speed y-pipe so it wouldn't hit the torque arm or safety loop, true duals are happening sooner than later now, I already got the Muffler and x-pipe just need to find a place to do the rest of the work!

^ Looks good. I just got my driveshaft from them yesterday. Hopefully the rear is soon to follow. Is there no Midwest sticker on your rear or did you get one and just not apply it?

I got one but didn't put it on, the watts link would cover it up, so im not sure if i should put it on or not. It's really a same you can't see this work of art under the car at ride height.

LPE 403, why did you order your rear without the back brace option? With the motor that is going to be going in your car, I think the back brace would have been a good investment.

I like the tow hook option. I bought brackets for the 10 bolt. Now I won't need them. Hmmmmm. Another reason pointing me this direction.
