And since we're into it this far. Planning on a 1-1-1/2 inch section of the crossmember some tube A arms and bags.
Rear bagged 2 link
Is it possible to move the crossmember forward much without getting into the steering components?
BTW I'm really thinking these p-19 pins do more damage than good on these trucks.

Moving the x-member forward & up but not moving the steering seems like asking for trouble. I would do a frame 'Z' to move everything together for a better (more consistent) result.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
