Well, since I can't work outside in this dog doo doo crap

weather I got a chance to work on the car, put in the new

uppers and coil overs what a quick and easy install, now I have

a complete CBR front end. Also with the new offset uppers I now

can have positive caster without worying about tire rub on the

fender!..


Now gotta make some cool caps to cover the stems!...

Nice... thats a really clean front-end assembly with the no rub at full articulation?  Is there enough room to box-in the stems? Might look cleaner in that space.....

In any case, nice install!!  Hope the rest of the build goes this well!  :good

Thanks Kelly, it is quality stuff and the weak stock front end is gone, I'm making a couple of caps to cover the stems now, really a simple deal just a cover using a flat head that replaces the zerk fitting!... They did an article on Super Chevy about it, pretty impressive!.. :good
