Not too much. The frame is fully boxed in and welded. I should be able to start putting suspension components under it tomorrow. I'll try and get some pictures posted later.

I bet you about wore out the tape measure these last few days. I know my tape hated me when I backhalved mine. Measure, measure, measure, measure, cut, measure, trim, measure, measure, tack, measure, measure, measure, weld, measure, measure, weld, measure, finish welding.

That's exactly right! Then have somebody else re-measure to double check your double double checks.

I have some axles coming, just waiting for the UPS Man. Once I can roll it around, it's getting loaded up, and headed out to get a cage.

only think thats looks out of place there is the lack of a wishbone, the single bar at your weight and TQ will flex too much and possibly bend IMO.

Would you recommend panhard bar instead of a wishbone? I've recently advocated this and wouldn't mind a second opinion.

Strange axles?

I dont like the load placed on a single diagonal bar , diagonal force in a rear end is pretty high, i've only been through two wish bones last year....
Double wishbone is the best, but a CM 1.250 .083 wishbone will be plenty for him. You as well.
The difference?
It all depends on the type of car being built. A diagonal link and wishbone are both designed for drag race only. There is too much stress put on the rod ends of a diagonal link when cornering to be safe for street use.
The wishbone requires too much maintenance for typical street use because of the slip joint.
The panhard bar is simple in design and very effective in controlling the side motion of a vehicle, but better suited for the street.

Thanks for hte response. I was thinking the diagonal link was fine because it was only seeing a compression load and only used for drag racing in the 1500 I'm building. I'll have to revisit my idea I suppose.

Ya I would say wishbone for sure also, where did that antiroll come from those arms look long. Are you gonna give the lower shock mounts some more support?

The kit came from S&W, I don't know where they source them from. I wasn't planning on beefing up the lower shock mounts, they looked strong enough to me, but maybe we can take a look at it when I bring it down to you.

Excellent choice! I've always been happy with their service even when it takes an extra 2-3 days. The last time I told Strange what kinda time crunch I was in and they over-nighted the axles on their dime.
