Re: My Antarctic Blue Super Sports Wagon with the C.B. and optional rally fun pack

So my builds are fairly structured, and I have a pretty good idea what needs to be done before the next step. The next one was getting the front suspension tacked in place. In order to do that, I had to fill in a 3/16" gap on either side of the Scott's crossmember. I took that opportunity to build some plates that would reinforce the side of the frame, and wrap slightly over the top to give it extra strength (thanks for the steel Jeff!).

Once I had everything where it needed to be and accounted for the rake, it was tacked in place. Then the front clip had to go back on so that I could visualize the ride height.
