Yo that is a nice setup. But do you think the front end will twist with the mod you did with engine cross member. Im not sure just asking. But that **** looks tight though.

Its not on there yet but its going to get two more brackets biult from that motor mount bracket underneath the car into the frame. I didnt put them on yet because im waiting to see where my rack and pinion is going to mount back there so i can incorperate them in. In addition to that im going to add a torque bar on top of the motor to the suspension.

Thanks it wasnt easy lol its still got a long ways to go to being done, need to add about two inches on each side where the gap is then paint it all since I was only able to find one black dash and every other one I have ever come accross has been red for some reason.

Mounting you lower control arms in single shear seems like a bad idea to me. I guess all that maters is if you are OK with it. You have put so much fab work into your mounts so far why not add provisions for FC control arms and throw away that stock stuff. You would get better bearings and brakes with the trade.
