More Fabbin
Well here is the Rear shock bracket built and no that is not the bolt Im gonna use for all you numb nuts who keep asking.
Boxed arms with limiting straps i have as it site about 4 inches in droop set that all can change with my air bags though.
Dual fans aluminum radiator all filled up ready to go
My firewall for all my relays and such, it cranks over but need more time to figure out wiring.

Well just wanted to say if you check my blog out once in awhile sign up to it or follow it.Well spent all night in the garage again got the radiator and fans mounted,all plumbed up ready for antifreeze. Also got my limiting straps welded on so I don't bind my cv's on the up-travel and rip out my shocks that would suck.I started tearing apart my front end and fixing the tie rods getting those dialed in put new bolts in the steering shaft. I cut off the ends of my oil cooler I'm gonna run my oil through the radiator than have a external one I just think it looks alot cleaner that way. Gonna get started on building the firewall to mount my computer and relays tomorrow then it will be a wire fest on Saturday. I will be getting a late start on it on sat because we are going to take the boy scouts out clay pigeon shooting they are going to try to get their shotgun merit badge we bought 800 rounds! They better get it. Anyways a few thing i still need to address is my throttle linkage and getting the back seat bolt in with belts. I'm really nervous about taking it out and prerunning it all i can say is i hope the motor runs and the transaxle will get me through a few trip other wise if either one doesn't work my seasons over!

Last of the picts.
Annie does such a good job taking picts
That how high my wheel goes before my cvs bind 28 inches of wheel travel wish I could use it all!
First protoype air bags for the rear suspension and on board air just in case you have a flat tire. Currently under refab of the rear bags.
Finally get to roll it out in the sun.
Fox shocks in the front.

Wishful thinking
Well i have roller now gas tank in and front seat
Tara and I doing a little wishful thinking trying out the new 5 point harnesses.
Just added the Cage support
Last pic of arms before I realized that the disc brakes wont work how I planned
Motor fits perfect without having to take out he trans with it or have a removable rear motor cage I love it when a plan comes together Ben :1 Rail: 200
Had to notch the hub to fit the caliper bracket man that looks awesome.
All brakes put on works good!
Just some cheapy rims I got at the junkyard barely clear the arms because they are not backspace but they work.
Putting the porche 930 stub axle in

Built pictures
Her is the last pic of the it before i cut out the rear half alot i figure if im gonna get axles made and spend the money might as well go big and do it right.
Pict of my jig to built the arms i used a tybe 1 hub i got froma old bug i had and cut them out and off of the stock arms these arms are 5x6 over the stock one
Check it out they look sweet!
Both mocked up ready to weld up
Got to get the transmission in there just right so both of your axles are the same length.
Rear motor cage welded back on
