neg. hasnt been touched. We got shipped the wrong rod ends for the back triangle bars and worked around them the best we could, but now are waiting on parts… it doesnt move without some sort of pinion holding device, so we cant drive or even roll it to the lift.

once the back end is 100% completed, and painted, and done, we will start the front.

Like I said, we are waiting on bushings. The rear triangle bars are all built and tig welded, just need to get the bushings and bolt it on.

So here is where it sits now.

Also not pictured but build are the double sheer tabs and corner mounting tube for the tri-bars. They will connect in the corners you see above.
