Yes. I "cupped" the bottom control arm & have a plate across the stock crossmember.

That's what you did up front. I read the question as what's going on out back.

It looks like an aftermarket POL or CPP T/A x-member & factory GM truck arms for the rear. But, it seems like your placement of the arms on the rear end will require changes @ the x-member.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
