Did you raise the upper control arms that much without changing the height of the spindle?

Yes, but I originally designed it around the factory spindle + upper and lower uniballs + the misalignment spacers. Now I've switch over to a set of '99 and up Chevy spindles for the bigger brakes. The change in spindle brought my roll center in about an inch, but nothing to worry about. I'd def. like to get your opinion on the build as of now.

That was just one of the things that concerned me. Having the distance between the pivots at the frame greater than the distance of the pivots at the spindle would make for some crazy geometry.

Little flimsy, but here the template for the backhalf. I designed on paper first before I start on the computer design. Whattayall think?

Got the Z just almost wrapped up. I need to weld it up and smooth it down. I know I could look better, but I'm much happier now than with the old gusseting.
