    Here are some more parts pictures.....

    Custom motor mounts by a fellow racer who owns a fab shop. You send him the motor plates and your mounts and he transforms them into this....







    Making the final "adjustments" to the front end. The core support will be removeable. The inner fenders have been removed to make room for the larger shocks and roll cage extension.

    ....any chance he wants to make another set, assuming they'd fit a stock engine situation?

    I've got one mount fubar'd...would be interested in a whole new set at the right price.

    thanks

    His price is 175.00 for the pair I think that includes the shipping back to you. Your mounts would be returned looking like the picture. This is the second set he has made.

    Nice progress. You should just put a 5.3l in since you've already got everything removed.

    Any interest in building another set of links?

    I would love to upgrade to a 5.3 BUT that would put me up into a different class and I don't have the budget to run class B...... YEY....

    I can get you a price for some links for a stock application. Mine are a little longer than stock for obvious reasons. Plus I plan on centering the wheels in the wheel wells, if you notice the tires are a little further forward stock.

    I have a spare set of mounts and plates that I can send off for you. She you get your new set installed just send me the ones you take off. Just an option. Maybe help me out with shipping my set to Andy.

    Thought I'd give you guys an update. I finally got my truck back on four wheels today and to say I am proud is an understatement! After months of hard work my parter and I had to sit down and take in what we've created. I ended up with about 8 inches of lift. For a comparison a stock oil pain is 10 1/2 inches of clearance, the Rover has 18 3/4 inches of clearance. I still have to finish plumbing the brake lines, install the shocks which will have 14 inches of travel front and rear, and some other final details. It has come a long way in a couple weeks.
