    Looking good. Is that front end a kit or home made?

    front end is a Rod and Custom kit it has been easy.The rear is another story though.Started out to be a 4 link air ride kit,but willend up a 3 link with part another susp. kit.Maybe i should have stuck with the leaf springs that was why we moved the frame rails when we tubbed the car.WELL.........NO.....the link set up will be cool when we get it to work.Thing is if your gonna tub your car no need to move rails if your gonna use a link susp.My bad i was gonna stick with leaf springs cause of money,but changed my mind!

    Are u talking about the booster?if so forget that go with hydraboost set up.It's more money but way smaller and u will get more from it.If u lived closer u could have it.It will be no good to me.
