Lookin sweeter and sweeter Diaz. But I'm also wondering if it is the same height as the stock frame and everything. Looks awefully tall, but may just be the camera angle.

Yep, stock frame is almost an inch and a quarter tall. It covers the whole area from the second hole in the tranny (above the hole Diaz used to mount his tranny at the back) down to the leaf mounts. Carving out the extra material makes it look taller, but everything looks like it lines up.

Maybe a PhotoChop wizard could overlay the Diaz chassis with the stock frame on the last page.

just a thought you say that chassie has a 1/2 inch lift on it would it be possible to fit the axle upside down so that it sits on the leafsprings instead of below them that would lower it by at least the amount you lifted it by and make it look more scale. i got a long wait for mine so all i can do is watch you guys build yours for now and with a sweet chassie like yours finding buyers wont be a problem.

Yet Another Twist On The Frame. It's Like A Disease. I Just Can't Stop Picking At It.

I'm still wondering if having the front shackles to the rear is going to work.

I sure he can design the chassis so that we could mount them either way....
