I agree. How much other "fabricated" parts are on the car. I'd have someone give it a real detailed inspection.

LOL, you got yourself some Lakewood 'Traction Action' lift bars. They work best on cars with a 4link setup (fox bodied mustangs, etc) but apparently they're made for fbodies too...

oh, and if you remove the lower adjustable rod and the bracket that mounts to the axle, you're left with some decent LCAs
