The mounts on the third member are about 38" wide and will not fit inside the frame-rails of a stock chassis. We're doing a 71 blazer with full C4 and I will be happy to post some pics as soon as we get to the suspension part of the build. Not trying to discourage, I know you're more than capable of doing this type of work, and I agree, the more work (challenge) the bigger reward!

Thanks for the info and I speak for alot of us that would love to see more of your work! You never need to worry about Discourging me! Heck most of the projects that I have done in some way is because someone told me it could not be done. I am one of those guys that lives life by two rules, Rule #1 is I don't use food for bait and I don't use bait for food! #2 is their is nothing I can not do just some things I have not done yet!!! So far both rules have worked out great.
