I got mine from TBG. I was getting a bunch of other stuff from TBG at the time as well so I bought from him but there is a member here that also does them.

ROH73 I think.

I decided to go a different direction with the hardware. I ditched the red cap screws in favor of black countersunk screws and red concave washers. Looks way better IMHO. I also was a little worried the aluminum screws would not be strong enough for the upper shock mounts so those are now titanium.

Tranny build.

I am hoping somebody can give me a good baseline setup for this car. Looking for gear ratio and shocks. Fronts will be 1.02v2 and rears are 1.32v2.

Been a busy summer. I did however find time to build the shocks. They went together pretty good.

I dont have any front truck springs so I threw on some Shuey reds.
