    Who made those front upper a-arms? and the chassis? I like the bend on the front leading edge of the a-arm.

    Steering....1/4 turn tight very nice.....Custom made......goes through the motor mount and next to oil pan.....Had to cut the pan to set engine low....Wanted to push the engine back for better handling so we made the shaft go through the mount.....Thats the only place it would fit.......

    Front end came from Art Morison and it's new. First time on car vert tight 1/4 turn is full turn. Very hard to get by the motor mount, so I went through it......car is 5 1/2 ground clearance.
