Well done Nathan!

[@taylorfrisby9890]

Hey Sam, did you have to cut into the frame horn to get the 3x3s to fit? It looks you did but i cant tell for certain

[@Sam_Mebane]

No, not at all. We did have to trim the inner edges of the horns a little to make room for the 002 transmission but that was about it.

Finally was able to find you. It was good to see ypu

[@Sam_Mebane]

You too Aunt Verna!

[@neckfro568]

Did you happen to do a video on shock install ?

[@Sam_Mebane]

Not yet, we just pulled the body in preparation for new floor pans, the roll cage and a subframe for the shocks since we’re not going to cut into the body for rear shocks.

@@Sam_Mebane can’t wait for that video thanks !

[@Dj-ve2hx]

I was wondering also since I don't see a cage or long travel shocks,also I have double spring plates,I see you running just one,what did you do ?

[@nightbasser73]

How is the camber on these? I have read that Latest rage had a camber issue on these arms at one time.

[@Sam_Mebane]

It isn't horrible but they do have a bit of positive camber at ride height. You can see a bit of it here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5PTXmqifs6Yfas
