I redrill the factory 5x4 front hubs and use RX-7 front rotors, the calipers are wilwood 4 piston (not installed yet) but prety easy to do by just fab a 3/16 brackets that bolt it on the spindle, weld 2.0 wheels and 165/80-15 street tires, this is a custom brake that really works and cheap less than $200 for it and my work fabricating the setup, it will use stainless braided brake lines.

SOME minitubing manual steering box and front end love,

MINITUBING, this is a very easy one to do, but it took me about 4.5 hrs. per side.

I am debating on doing a custom 4 link set up for it or leaving it leaf springed still dont know i will spend almost the same with the complete caltrack setup or doing it 4 link myself, what you guys think?
In one hand the car will have a better rear suspension and in the other hand it will not loose its stock suspension status, still dont know i think when i get to that point i'll deside!
 
Change the intake, victor single plane intake, and with the sale of the other intake it is dirt cheap so i got to have it!

holy **** man your parts are comming along nicely im jelous looking great man
 
Nice work.I like the 4 link idea.Gives ya better axle control and easy to adjust the suspension. I had a ladder bar set up in a duster and it was a rough ride to say the least.
 
Very nice! Looks like the leaves are a big battle lol. Do you still have front fender chrome for the Demon? If so pm me.
