    Looks really good from here!
     
  5. Are those motor mounts currently available? Very classy way to support the engine while routing the steering when using the ultra low.

    nothing special...just a piece of filler tube connected to the stock one and turned around ...just a temporary fix....its got a poly stock replacement tank.
     
  13. ...hey thanks. i was just always under this weird impression that there was a clearance issue with keeping the tank stock when running bags. i see most guys using a mustang tank. but apparently yours is living proof :)

    i kept the stock tank but raised it up, so the seam is at trunk level, i just was hoping to change it around in the future to give more room in the trunk. just like you said though "temporary fix".

    NICE JOB Alex. never disappointed with your posts... Hoptup Jalop just got ahold of me about the rest of the air ride parts he needs (the Air Management system). it's nice to see what those parts would be going on and that it is such a sweet ride!!!

    Hey Alex.Do you have to raise the fender wells up in the rear ? Im running 14 inch rims. I mean if Im in there why not. I dont know if I will ever bag it but iI might. You think it would be best to just do it all for now even if I dont bag it soon? Im just running a 3 inch block now and I cant stand the axle hitting the frame anymore!
