Here's mine.

The "installed" picture is at the very
bottom of the page.

Here's some from the bottom of the RatMobile
(BBC drag car)

Does RoadTech have a website? Where can you buy this setup? I'm interested in the Caster/Camber plates.

I am diehard for coilovers, but with third gen applications I have been told time and time again will not hold up in the long run without fabricated support to the upper strut mount area to support the weight of the vehicle. The stock design spring doesn't rest the weight of the car on the fender like the coilover setup requires.I've decided not to butcher the frontend to make this work- It'll cost to much time/money for the gains in my opinion.

Food for thought for everybody.

Also, I have already fabricated upper brackets supports that will mount in the rear shock area to dispurse the load back to the can area when I purchase and install my rear Koni coilvers. I have also welded braces to the lower axle shock mounts already for added strength.
