    Here's a couple from of my AJE stuff when I was mocking it up before the towers were plated..... If you look at my build thread there are more there, but none of the final assembly because I just haven't got that far yet.....

    Is the AJE strong enough for daily use? Not that I drive my cars everyday...

    Yes, even if you do wheelstands! But, really,...
    I'm thinking thier crossmember, shorter A arms, stelleto rack and Santoff spindle mount struts. Of course my shock towers will be tied into the cage with the front frame bars so I won't be relieing on the stock part to take the compression load. I think it will all work, essentially transplanting Fox body technology into the maverick unibody.
    Commentary welcome.....

    I believe our member " Joe Dirt" did a fox body type front end on his car.

    Search his project thread.:yup:
