no problem , im tying the down barrs into the shock towers so i can remove as much material as possible , the only draw back i have is that i cant bend any tubing so i have to bend modeling wire and take the tubes to the nearest chassis shop so they can bend them for me ..... will have the front end done by the weekend , took 60 lbs off the front of the car ..... and going to replace it with about 40lbs of tubing
