That should handle a /6. :)

Haha, the only limitation he gave me was 1000HP or more. He said when we get up there we'd better go with Strange axles and a 40+ spline. Right now the QP axles and 35 spline spool will handle what I got for it. ;)

Well I got out there today to move the car around to get the rear away from the un-insulated garage door so I can get the spring relocate done. Here's how it sits as of right now.

Oh yeah, the junk is!

I've now broken in the freshly finished garage

Relocate box is in!

Hard to notice, but if you look, on the drivers side, the spring is on the outside of the frame, if you look on the passenger side, with the new box in, the spring will now be in line with the frame.

Here's another shot of the box installed after notching the sub-frame.

Last pic for referance on where the spring currently sits, and it will sit where the frame rail is due to the relocate box we installed on the other side.

Looking good so far. The only thing I see wrong is the Ford Racing banner right above the dart.

I also send you a PM.. a question..

That will handle a /6!!!! That was sooo funny :headbang:

Yep you are keeping the shop very busy. :thumbup: Looking good sir.

Thanks guys, as soon as I get the plasma cutter tip, I'll be starting it up again.

The Ford banner stays ladies, there is however a BFG banner with a Hemi 'Cuda on the south wall though. ;)

Not a whole lot looking different. Other than the relocate part is done!!!
