Got the idler arm mount built and have a LSOH steering linkage kit on the way. So that wraps up the front other than some grinding and smoothing the curves out. Got both front body mounts made and welded n place. Next Ill do the rear mounts and then cut it loose from the table, flip and weld out the bottom. Then install the wishbone lower links and bag mounts and driveshaft hoop and she'll be a roller.

Please do not take this in a bad way. Your frame looks badass, but you should have just built a new front suspension, you definitely have the fab skills! Just jig off of the stock mounting points and do your own box tube crossmember and rails there. Would flow so much better with the rest of your frame. Good Luck looks great. JR

No offenses taken. I had thought about it actually but when all the holes are filled and and the x memebers is smooth it won't look bad. It does look kinda odd because its bulky but the small block will cover that up

Maybe I'll get a wild hair and ditch it anyways.

nevermind i think i found them at Welder Series Inc. They are pretty nifty. Certainly makes the idea of building a frame a little less intimidating.
