12" in back, 10" in front. I am putting in the 2nd gen front subframe as well. So I will have a Rack&Pinion steering and the TII brakes. I will let you guys know how it goes. The Size of the frames seems to be similar.

I like the round holes for the driving lights.

What kit is that finally?

Very nice, now don't short change yourself on the paint job.
