Here are some pics of what I've been doing in the shop at night... Making brackets, ESPECIALLY ones with a lot of holes in them takes time.
Here are the 4 upper housing brackets. These will carry the upper link bar.

These are the two "big" plates all laid out. They will carry the lower links, lower shock brackets and, on the drivers side, the panhard bar bracket.

This is the drivers side with all of the holes drilled. The large expanse of metal on the right is what will carry the panhard bar bracket.

This is the front lower Johnny Joint. 2 1/2 x 1 1/4 thrd. I sure hope they strong enough...

Here is a shot of the weld bung and a short piece of mock-up tubing. This will make up the two lower bars. I will use the mono-balls in front with a rigid poly bushing in the bar, on the housing.

I have to do a lot of clean up work on the brackets yet. Rounding corners and straightening up bandsaw cuts but that's the easy part...
Thanks for looking
Mark
