Re: My 86 build
Oh man! I know what's coming next! Good luck, its kind of a pain without a body motor/ trans in. You'll have to think of your parking brake routing, and welding in your shift linkage on the driverside. I bet it will turn out rad!

thanks....parking brake cable is already gone.. and the shift linkage I had already moved to the top of the frame when I did the "z". the hardest part will be welding it up!

Re: My 86 build
Sweet. Are you going with 2 x5 or 2x 4? The body is only 1-1/4 inches above the frame. I went with 2x 5 cause I only did 2.5 z. Im gonna have a hard time laying frame now I'm thinking. Hopefully the pirterbuilts get me another 1-1/2 inches lower than the stock lower arms....
