i dont know how its going to be but i like it, the purist's wont, but i think rack and pinion steering will be great, the whole thing looks like a pro street car and they do great!

Yes I have. I am running their trailing arms and crossmember. Good stuff! They seem to lay down lower than I'm looking for in the front.

It's been awhile but I thought he had kits with coil overs and mild drops. Just saying it might be worth the call.

Porterbuilt sells 3 different Dropmembers.
Mild, Touring, and Extreme.
Add coil over shocks, or bags.
Your choice.
The ride height possibilities are endless.

The key is getting the crossmember up in the chassis so you have increased ground clearance.
The Dropmember also has improved geometry and centered wheel position,... just to name a few.
