finally got to the point where we could set the IRS on the car.

Had to cut and extend my Roticery to raise it up a little bit so the car will flip all the way over.

To start with I wanted to get this sitting near into place to check the clearances and make the mounting brackets.


Had to chop my Roticery and raise it up 6" beacuse it was a little too low to flip it all the way over.

that's what I call a patched, or "scabbed"job on the vertical channel...
I didn't have any 3" CHANNEL so I used this.
don't need the roticery once the car is on the ground, so this will do for now.

Got the IRS sitting in place. it is on top of the sub frame, so we'll be cutting the mounts into it lower, but this gives me a good idea of placement and clearance for the wheels.

I think they look great.
Granted you never know until you see them on the finished vehicle, but I like em.
