For anyone who is interested in this swap or has further question feel free to ask away, I'll do my best to answer. I do have some additional pics as well if you care to view them I can e-mail them or post them here. As you can see the suspension work is complete (less the Aldon coil overs I'm waiting for)all I have to do now is get my tubs figured out to go around the 4-link and seal off the cabin.
Keep in my that I did all the original building and fabricated all the brackets required and tacked them in place but I had a professional do all the final welding as my skills are just no where near good enough, and at speed the last thing I want to be thinking is if the rear is going to stay with the car. I also had the fabricator make the lower shock mounts and I'm happy I did so. So, although I'm proud of how it turned out, I can't take credit for the finished product entirely.

Wow that's awsome. Are you going to anything else to stiffen up the frame tho?

Yup, I have to install the subframe connecters yet, and there will be a 6-8 point roll bar as well. Should do the trick.

Chill, Noel.
