Looks tremendous! What's left to do?

Day 247, the assembly is pretty much finished with one MAJOR exception.....Unfortunately I can not finish the exhaust here. The TTI tail pipes do not play well with the RMS rear Street Lynx suspension, so I have to take it to an exhaust shop...that's a first for me..After that we can fire it up and work the bugs out... :dunno:

I'm happy with the subtle changes in the interior...

What size exhaust and rear end are you running?  My TTI 2.5" pipes fit fine with the Street Lynx and 8.75", but they do have a footnote stating they don't fit with the 3" pipes, or if running a Dana 60.

Well that's odd, I was having a bitch of a time making them work...I have the same set-up as you :pullinghair:  mine were hitting the top link bars, and when I turned them away from the bar, there was no way to get the tips lined up...

This is good news though...maybe the muffle shop can figure something out without having to make entirely new pipes... :fingerscrossed:

.....not very far...out the driveway, down the road 100 yards and back, on to my trailer...then it was off to the muffler shop, hopefully they'll have better luck with the exhaust..

Haha.  I'm trying to convince my 16 year old daughter to be my social media expert for the build on my car.   Edit up videos etc for me.  Anyway, the car looks stunning
