How are you getting around the positive camber?  Did you turn the spring plates on the torsion bars?

Do you still intend to channel the body down?

Getting there now  :afro:

At the moment it's got some temporary raising plates which are bolted to the spring plates and hold the driveshafts 4"higher. It's only like that so it will roll and can let us see how it's going to sit.

We are looking at doing some sort of inboard shock setup on the rears, possibly.

Still got some negative camber, but it does need to come up slightly. I want some dropped spindles on the front as well.

Looking to do a 3"channel on it, nothing mega, but we are going to roofchop it first I think. Next step is fully welding and trimming the panels.

Needs a cash injection! Started to get the panels in properly as that's free. Couple of pics.
