Tub info within!!

Does anyone have any good links to sites that show how to tub a third gen or any other car for that matter. I'm thinking about it for my strip car and i'm looking for some good info. It's pretty straight forward with a full frame car but i was just wanting to know some more about how to do it with a thirdgen. -Thanks.

There's very little to tub on a third gen unless you do a complete back half. The "frame rails" are already at the inner fenders so there's nothing to move back for more tire clearance. You can trim off the bump stop and section out the front and rear of the inner fender a little for a bit more clearance.
