The 3 link crossmember i made the frame brackets long in the back so i had room to incorporate the watts cradle. I will post more pics of the cradle when i pull it back out to finish welding it. Here a few more pics. I left the cradle unfinished because i have not decided if i want to weld the cradle to the frame, or sleeve the frame and make it a bolt-in cradle... any suggestions on this?

Finally finished the torque arm front crossmember / safety loop. It uses the loop as a attachment point to the driveshaft tunnel, the crossmember triangulates the floor, taking advantage of the heavy duty seat riser pan. This feels extremely rigid there is no flex in it. The tunnel mount is curved to fit tight flush against the tunnel floor.

Trailing arms and torque arm crossmember powder coated black. Got a bunch of aluminum spacers for all the rod ends, and some steel frame sleeves for the mounting points on the torque arm crossmember and rear suspension cradle.
