    Default My front end rebuild

    My front end has been all out of wack, the trac bar was to short then the bracket bent so it was even more off. we made the bracket solid but the bar was still to short. I decided to put some 1/4 lower mounts and fix some other stuff on my front end. Heres some pics

    made billet bump stop pads

    1/4 inch mounts

    painted my control arms

    converted the upper mount to a big bushing with a big bolt


    and BAM!





    I'm stoked with it. It handles so much better

    no the front are mcneil racing and the reard are hannemen. Rustys doesnt make glass they just resale hannemen's. Bad news is the 4.0 blew up last week. Good news is its getting a 350tbi v8, turbo350 tranny and getting caged, full interior and painted...as soon as I find a cheap car for a DD

    Did you take any pic of the install of the rear fenders? Were they hard to install?
