Got the rear end crossmembers in and the 4 link brackets in place. Ones just tacked on and the other i got fully welded in place, the brackets are kinda thick and ive got my machine maxed out on 120v i beveled the crap out of the brackets to ensure good penitration. I may give them one more filler pass but not 100% sure if i need to yet. Kinda wishing i bought a better mig welder, would have made this sooooo much easier to do
With where the shocks are gonna have to go, they will need about a 15°-20° lean back to avoid an excessive stink bug stance and still allow a little adjustment. Im thinking of notching the frame a little for clearance but im not sure if thats NHRA kosher and i do plan on making this certifiable for 8 second passes. Though im not sure if it will ever be THAT fast, it would be nice to know its safe to do so.
