Thanks Chris.

Heres an update...

Well I decide to change the upper wishbone to a triangulated four link, didnt like the long front mounting tabs. Also Got the rear shocks mounted to the lower bars. As well as made the mount for the accuair vavle and i've started the computer mount.

Here are the pictures...

I'm not really feeling those new front upper bar mounts, they just look outta place with the rest of the fab work.

I redid the accuair valve mount cause i didnt care for it resting on the driveline hoop. I also got the lower link end changed out to rod ends, and got the third member in to check driveline clearance.

Heres the pictures.

I would put some spacers on those heims so that it can have some movement. Frame looks good though.

Well heres a good update! I got the chassis mocked up and fully welded. Also got the front frame horns finished. Got the chassis off the table and almost nocked back up. Need to get rear drums and put the rack in upfront and then it will be a roller.

Anyways heres the pictures....
