Started on the front end and mocking up mounting points for the lower control arms. Plan is to build from the bottom up. Managed to get the lower rails bent and in and then built prototype mounts for the lower control arms and to hold the hubs in proper position. A college kid who stopped by Wray's shop and will be working there for credit next semester, then helped me get the temp hub jigs and the mounts into solidworks. Cut test parts on the plasma cutter and sent the files off to the waterjet guy to cut in 3/8th. The LC's will mount below the rail and the four C's will lock over the tube. The Plan is with the hubs and lower control arms in position to build to the upper control arm mounts. Spent an inordinate amount of time playing with pick-up points on the racing geometry app-still playing with the upper points.
