putting an axle and tri4link in the HHR

Cut out the rest of the floor pan. and got most of the front upper mount built.   

looking good so far. cant wait to see how it all turns out.

lower bars. i got them to let it lay out and not drag the ground.   

 got everything all lined up. through 7" of up and down there is less than 1/2" front to back. top pick is at 5-6" of lift. thats rocker to ground  

got most of the floor pan framed up and got everything cut out to tuck the tires.  

sweet, can't wait to see more!

looking great can't wait to see this thing finished up.

I am curious, is there a reason you centered the spindles with the cross pipe? if they were offset higher, everything else could be lower and not have such a high floor

Edited: 12/23/2009 8:43:42 PM by garagebuiltyeah the sensor for the abs is a circle that just happens to be the same diameter as the inside of the pipe. i could have probably done some 45s to drop it some but it didnt seem worth the trouble. the floor wont be higher than before though. well maybe an inch. the nothch is about 2" below the floor this pic may help   got more of the floor done

got the shocks figured out i think.    took some sway bar bushings and turned them to make the dogbones to connect the shock to the axle beforeafter
