Fitment of upper/lower braces, 740 ford 5L

Then I'll tell ya next month how it goes. The top looks fine but I'm not sure how well the bottom is going to fit.

I'll be installing koni's, b&g springs, f/r ipd sways, upper and lower cherry braces, and probably the adjustable panhard rod to re-center.

Fun stuff is next month unfortunately :(

This month it's brakes and tires...yippee. :\

Ah well - priorities, safety, yada yada yada.

It crossed my mind to just buy a supercharger instead and forget about the rest. HA! No handling+no stopping+crap tires+300hp+300ft/lb+heavy sedan = well you get the picture. Fortunately (unfortunately?) reason won out that one pretty easily.

I like turning best anyway. I must be getting old...not so long ago I WOULD have bought the supercharger instead. I'm lucky I made it through those years :)

I'm looking forward to the transformation. My gotta-have-it-now desires will just have to burn impotently in my guts until then!

Now what to do about these tire clearance issues. Where'd I put my hammer...
