GySgtFrank will become famous soon enough
A little more work done. As usual things are getting more complicated than I at first envisioned. Fitted the tires and wasn't happy with the inside clearance. Tried spacers, but I wanted the tires tucked in more, sooo, mini-tub time.

I got the third link in so I could do away with the upper control arms.

Had to cut my fancy dancy spring buckets (they needed to be higher anyway, measurements never come out right). Removed the wheel well.

Got the inner rear wheel well plate fabbed and fitted, should give me plenty of clearance for off camber articulation.

The limiting factor now is going to be the spring, but for now I have plenty of space there. Also going to have to move the shock mounting point. No big deal, now where have I heard that before? Wheels look good on there though.

The things I won't get myself into.
