Looks good man coming along good..

IRS! That'll be sweet!
2 more runs on the ladder or just 1 and some tabs and gussets?
Very interesting!

go back to your first post and click on edit, change the subject line and it will change.

Thank you sir!

Minor update. Haven't touched it in a long time but got to spend sometime on the B today.

Made mounts for the RX7 subframe out 4"x 4" square tubing:




And this is how it is going to be:


I still have to weld the pins in order to call these mounts done.

Badass!

Nice! Keep the updates coming!

Love how it's going. Should be able to come up and see it soon. just been working on my truck and haven't taken that far yet But she should make it. You off on any certain days? I could come on a friday or saturday..

Mine is going pretty slow too... I'm always off on weekends, come on up!

I decided to get something done on the B this weekend. It is always the lowest priority in my list of things, but if it stays this way it will never be finished. So I decided: screw the priorities!

The RX7 IRS is finally bolted in place and the truck sits on its own wheels again. I finished installing the subframe, differential and anti-sway bar. Also installed the brackets for the air bags. This is my first air bag setup, I think it turned out ok. Not super pretty, but functional.





Bellow, bags fully deflated: remember, laying frame was not the intention

Next I have to figure out the shocks and install the anti-sway bar links. Then it's back to the engine and drive line again...
