ok....Is it me or did you recycle a part from the front end for your shock mount? I am not sure what the part is called but it is a bar of some sort up front. Looks awsome!

At this point I'm not intending on repainting it. But who knows, things might change before its done. Thanks for the compliments.

How did you mold those gauge pods to the mazda interior piece? They look great, i was thinking of doing the same thing but with the 3 gauge pod. I dont want to put my gauges in my sheetmetal dash. Truck looks great btw.

If your referring to the second pic, it is just a bunch of scrap metal welded together and ground down. The "strut rod" is what runs from below the radiator to the lower control arm. It is held to the lower control arm with two bolts. The lower shock mount (second pic) was basically sandwiched between the strut rod and the lower control arm.

Basically used an AutoZone piece which is made of ABS plastic. It gets real soft when heated with a heat gun. so I just carefully heated up and stretched and formed the plastic to fit the A piller plastic. used pop rivets to hold it on then covered with white vinyl. Could also smooth out with fiberglass and paint.
