hey guys I just got done for the most part with the front susp change over it went pretty well no broken or hard bolts to get out it was weird lol. I snaped a few pics of it. and here they are.
now here is a old pic and this is with the engine in just for a idea of right height.
now here is a bad bad pic(it was getting dark) this is with the new stuff and it is sitting to low anyway but this is with No engine in it hehe. the pic is weird but there is only about 3in gap between tire and fender, used to be like 5+ with the engine in it lol.

I love those parts. Can't wait to see how that all works out for you at the track! How was the fitment of those parts? _________________

well the k member bolted up fine and this was one i got used it was made long time ago but never used and there was a problem with it when he got it, being that the tie rods where hitten the k frame, i guess they offerd anouther one but he never took them up so i bought it and found out the fitment was bad, so the car is getting a rack and pinion, my buddy has been racing on his PA stuff for years now with no problems. but besides that everything is great and bolted up good. and i dont care what anyway says it saved some weight lol, i can move the new one with arms on no problem the old one was a bit more of a pain to move around by my self.
