thanks, and no never thought of it lol. still need to add some bracing to the lower bag brackets to completly get rid of trailing arm inward twist (not to much now). also have to redo the whole adjustable panhard bar issue


for the front, well i put the stock upper a arms back on in the front because of having to much positive camber, gonna shorten and cup the lowers and add 3" drop spindles with bags and that should take care of the front for a while.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

some cupped lower a arms im building.... welded with an arc welder by me, and not the greatest and best looking but they will work. also will probably end up shortening them 1" to help with negative camber.

edit: dont mind the obligitory frame in the background lol....

haha thanks bro. still a whole lot more work ahead of myself. my skills are not that great especially in the welding department, thats why i did not weld the notch my self but did help with the install of it lol. the a arms on the other hand i am doing myself , the welds are not perfect as i am using an arc welder and also not the greatest welder, but they should hold as it is welded inside and out, front and back top and bottom lol..

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
