    So did you add a tranny support or removed it all together and this is now supporting the tail end of the drivetrain?

    Very true LOL. That's why I always laugh when people start posting stuff about how easy/fast/cheap it can be done. Yea whatever :D

    Man, this project is really turning out great! Very unique with that rear suspension.

    I was just thinking the same!

    It's going to be a PITA to deal with dual cases and/or tranny work.

    OP: is it easy to remove the exhaust if you have to do tranny work?

    Looks amazing, Shane. I'm really digging how clean those fluid lines look and are those AN fittings? Looks like they should be attached to a big ol' high-bypass turbofan engine on an aircraft, haha. That's some incredible attention to detail there. :thumbsup: I love this build.
