If you wanted to save time you could always call up CPP and order their crossmember only for about $150 I believe. Last time I looked at porters website they no longer listed the trailing arm option for squares any longer. You could also order one of their "modular" crossmembers and build your own frame brackets which is what they wound up giving me to get mine to work and then I still had to modify it some.

Thanks for the offer!! I'll probably end up making our own crossmember if we decide to convert it to trailing arms. Still in the planning stages.

We'll be using a F-body T56 so a shorter gear might be more appropriate since 6th gear is .50:1 ratio. Maybe 4:10 or 4.56 depending on the tire size we end up with.
