[QUOTE="jccarter1, post: 576533, member: 3970"] Got s few things knocked last night got front shock hoops in and got the mounts in as well..... The Shock mounts look pretty simple but there was a lot of work to get it to fit in the hoop like I wanted (hopefully it will protect the shock in a bad rollover) and have full range of motion on the shock eye after some failed tries with flat steel I realized that I could overcome the compound angle problems I was running into by using some bent/rolled steel stock and even though it took 6 hours I was very happy with the final outcome. This was the first real test to see the shock travel and suspension motion and I was very please. Ride height will be 20 inch belly with 16inch coilovers front and rear at ride height it has total of 10 1/2 inch up travel and 3 inch air bumps should make for a smooth ride but might need a sway bar in the rear to help balance it out. Also got started on motor mounts and drivetrain mounts.
