Here's the rough cut suspension parts, and some nerf bars I bent up-
Some of the front suspension parts, red crp parts, and the modded chassis. Here you can see the front suspension block pushed forward, and a matching red modded crp body mount-
Rear shot showing the waterjet cut shock extensions, and a center tab for the 3rd shock mod that mounts to what was originally the chassis resistor mount. I'm going to run a mechanical speed control (and vintage radio. I like old stuff like that!) and have an idea for where/how the new resistor will fit. Still sorting that out though...
Also, I had an odd You-G shock, so I used that for the rear 3rd shock mod. Was pretty happy having a set of 5 on this car!
A couple shots of the front suspension assembled. I've got to tweak a couple spots, and detail it a little better, but it's almost there.
It consists of lower CRP arms, custom cut upper arms, custom cut rockers, in-board You-G shocks, modded CRP front body mount, and you can see a bit of the nerf's mounted.
Chassis is almost complete here. Still need to add the rear body mounts on the sides of the chassis.
Rear chassis view shows the Super Hornet lower shock mounts and customs uppers.
Still working on the front bumper. Aluminum tube upper bar and waterjet cut plate to mount lights to.
And finally the body mocked up. Gotta clean and detail it a bit more, mount the roof rack, finish the rear body mounts, mount the lights and wire them, etc...
You get the idea...
front lights to be mounted-
And that's it for now! It's almost there. I'll be glad to get this wrapped up so I can finish up a couple other projects and add them to the showroom.
Cheers!
