A few more pics with the body to have an idea of the height the suspension will need to be. Looks like the chassis will have to habe a little bit of forward rake so the front suspension mounting point (lower arm on the chassis) does not end up too high and the arm at a too steep angle.























And these are the shocks I have found to make the front struts. See I used two of the springs collars (normally used to adjust the height and preload) and I will use them to secure the strut to my custom wheel knuckles. Still thinking of how to make the front strut towers, I have a few ideas.
