heres some progress pics of the front wishbone project I'm working on....made much progress this weekend....
tommorrow I will roll the parabola-shaped wishbone link on the tube roller, I'll probably use 1.5 dia .250 wall.....and the fat wall thickness I'm thinking is necessary to limit side-load flex, but maybe its overkill?
the parabola will be 27" wide and 35" long, which is somewhat proportional; to the st. louis arch...it will be a 13-step shape with 6 different radii on both legs blended as its rolled....
it should work out that will not have to modify the oil pan, but running the exhaust will be a bitch!
crossmember and skidplate to follow, after the exhaust is re-routed.
