Gunslinger Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 There must have more than three issues that had to be dealt with, but I'll say the wheel wells, the frame length and interior door mechanism redesign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plwindish Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Body floor pan modifications to get away from torque box perimeter mounts to a perimeter type frame mounting and wheel base length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfg Posted August 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Body floor pan modifications to get away from torque box perimeter mounts to a perimeter type frame mounting and wheel base length. I'd say you got the last two.......A reconfigured fiberglass floor pan....and 'ground effects' rocker panel covers to conceal the sides of the new frame.
