Welcome to the board.

Nice, it looks like you're off to a good start!

My suggestions would be cut the bottom of the chassis/tranny off. Then you can move your lower links up closer to the uppers and that would gain you a bunch of ground clearance.

Ya, I would cut it even more, take it up to the next "intersection" on frame. Here's a couple pics of my chassis so you can see how much I cut.
