thanks boys, I thought you might like!

reason for the cut-outs in the towers are to clear the modified Carrera 90/10's. buddy gave me some himes ends off an airplane long time ago so they replaced the top rubber bushing that were welded on (these originally came ball joint style) and to make sure they moved nice and free made some bronze bushings for the trailing arm side....

the adjusters would probably clear the goofy e-brake cover if...........I had the original pan. right now all I have is a 57 pan
