Re: My 86 build
may switch up my upper bars and go with a wishbone style instead of triangulated uppers...not sure if I can get them mounted the way I want them and still get enough triangulation.

Re: My 86 build
today I started to raise the fenders in the bed to make some room in the wheelwells, I cant drop it any lower without the tires wanting to hit the fenders, so I thought I'd get this out of the way before I finish the 4-link bars. I only got the drivers side finished today, I hope to do the passengers side this week. forgot to take pics during the cutting and welding, but have some after....

thanks.....the 18"s are back on, I think I have a couple inches between the bag and tire...I had already moved the bag mount an inch closer to the front mount from where I originally had it because I thought it was close!

Looking good man! What's the part number on that rear disc setup? My dad is looking a setup like that with the hat style parking brake.
