Good news, my buddy finished my new spindles, so now I can button up the front suspension. I finished the notches tonight, so I get the rear welded in, gonna be a busy weekend.

So you're almost done then? lol
I can't wait to see this thing on the ground.
Going to paint it or stick with patina?

As it turns out Dodge bodies are not exactly level with the chassis. I had been working on a level chassis, but today I dropped it on the ground and the rear was a little low, like 4 inches. Not a big deal at this point since the suspension is not welded in yet. Although I could have gotten away with a smaller notch, it's easy enough to cut them down. The most important thing is the proper stance.

Very nice and I'm like everyone else nice to see something different. I'm a mopar fan and I hope my dakota will one day be able to get a v10 eventually. I'm impressed and looking forward to see where you go next. Thank you for sharing and God bless you.

Hate to disappoint you, but their won't be any "frame laying" I'm going with coil-overs instead of bags... Originally Posted by Centerforce

Looks like something you'd use with a cantilever suspension. What's the plan?

Rear completely tacked in, can't weld it in solid until I determine the correct pinion angle.
