tubbing an 84 ta got any advice?

iv never tubbed anything before. the main reason i am tubbing it is because it WILL NOT HOOK. period!!! if TA,s are a pain to tub i might just cut my losses and get somthing without t tops or somthing more rigid

the rear end lenght and tires i can take care of. but anyone ever put a 4 link in a TA and if so wats there any problems? not in fabrication erors just in general. things somone might need to know before they start. i will even pull the body off the back if thats easyer or worth it. just some ideas. as far as my ability to fabricate, well im a retired aircraft fab. specialist so throw the ideas at me with extreme predjudist hahahaha.

or if you guys know anything better or easyer than a 4 link im open to that to. im also puttin a rollcage in it to get rid of flex........... and im going to use a ford 9"
