    Yep! These are for a 2020 Cadillac CT5 without the heated steering wheel option. The heat steering wheel option requires significantly bigger arms.

    Made a little progress today. Drilled and cut the shock mounts out. Really need a plasma cutter

    Got the tube adapters welded on.
    Do Not have the heim joints threaded in when welding in the tube adapters.

    Need to seal the shock mount area and drill a drain hole or slot.

    It was beautiful today! I’m ready to see the end result too. I spent most of the day grinding and welding, and I still have a ways to go.

    Started playing on the diy flex spot (aka firewood rounds destined for firepit) and found a lil 3pooches mud and grass up inside the interior of the SSO stage 2 wings!20201110_161721.jpg

    Oh I can't wait to run the course (a little less wet perhaps!) with both hands working next year...in the mean time I'll just do mini flexing for the time being20201110_163049.jpg

    But seriously, that is some amazing tube work. Round tube is hard to work with. My hats off to you.
