 I bought my friend's old front suspension system off of his outlaw car since he had new lighter arms and brakes installed. The arms are designed to eliminate the k-member so you can run a top fuel rail pan. I also ordered my new rear axle yesterday. I went out of the norm and ordered a Strange S60 with 40spline shafts. I hope this decision works out for me.

I also received my Strange S60 last month. I installed a pair of Chris Alston's Chassisworks spherical bearings.
