Winter project

[Klif01]

Sorry but, what the hell is this............

Maybe you need to get some new advice from someone else....

Thats similar to the same brackets I used on mine.....just boxed it in, and cut the tops off.....

A little under the weather today so I got a late start. Then I ran out of wire on the welder. I boxed in the the brackets and cut them down on top of the pumpkin. I still have the front brackets to build on the top bars. I believe the hardest parts of my project are about done.

Still plugging away on the sami. I've got the motor mounts welded up and the trans mount built but only tacked. I need mount the t- case to make sure the front drive line doesn't hit it. This week going to rebuild the t-case and start installing new brake lines.

updates?

How do you think running the heavy SBC in the front like that will affect balance, say on a down hill drop ?

He's running a 4.3 not a small block. Only weighs about 450 pounds.

[Dixon]

I could never make up my mind about the shackle reversal I heard to many different ideas for and against them, just couldn't decide.
