    looks good. I see the welder there, did you leave that for the pic or did you actually finish welding the notch with the bags on the car? :D

    It was in the pic because I was welding some brackets for the gas tank in the rear....just a coincidence.

    The car looks great, did you install a 4 link on it? How much of the wheelwells/floor did you have to cut out, do you have any more pictures. I really want to do the same to my car but I am a little nervous about getting the whole thing set up right.

    I used the standard S-10 from Suicidedoors. Hade to trim in a few areas but just the bottom angles to match up with my frame. I am only running the main leaf that I had made from a spring shop so its a bit more sturdy than the orig. Ill try this set up for a while and see how she runs then if I dont like it I can always switch it out for a 4 link? But so far so good!

    Thanks for the logo feedback, always working on new pics.

    Will be posting more soon.

    Your using leaf springs with lowering blocks??

    What size lowering blocks?

    Dowh, I thought you had a 4-bar since you added a tower notch.

    Thanks for posting a response to my question.

    cfish50chevy, do you have any higher res pics you could send me? You basically did exactly what I am planning, I would love to see some more of the notch and maybe one from the interior of the car looking back into the trunk. Or whatever you have.

    Thanks!
