[QUOTE="yachty, post: 402939, member: 16467"] Thats the A arms about 5mm below the chassis rail, and upfront the tyres are about 2mm shy of the tubs and the tie rods are disconnected. It needs 75mm (3") semi-circle notches at the front for the tie rods, and tubbing for tyre clearance. I've been on the phone to Slamwerks today for a pair of their tubs ;) Out back, the jury is undecided but I'm thinking to cut and raise the existing chassis member and add gussets fore and aft, a la Slamwerks/Dubscum style 8) . The big decision is how far to go with the notches and what to do about the inner support......cut it out completely or try and reposition it to join the modified chassis rail :D [/QUOTE]
