We are going to have the back seat modified so that it can be retained. Once the roll cage is installed it will be a little harder to access, but it will be there. Bob

I like the idea of the minitub over the stock IRS. By looking at the HOW-TO's on doing the project, it doesn't look all that hard. The only part that seems costly is having the rims widened.

I wish going to a solid rear wasn't so expensive. I'd definately do it. I'm gonna do my best to fit some 315's with the IRS for now I suppose.

Wasn't BMR selling the notched A-arms? I didn't see them on their website.

That mini tube job looks pretty straight forward till you get the the back seat issue.

Hey Bob (EPP),

What are you guys planning for the fuel tank? Looks like the stock tank won't fit in it stock location now.
