[QUOTE="suicidekings, post: 16073536, member: 121833"] Finally buttoning everything up on the rear end. One of the issues with starting with a car that had its shit pushed in is that things won't always fit. Case in point here is the IRS cradle. The passenger side physically will not move up any higher at all. The pic below shows how far out it is currently. [ATTACH=full]1534734[/ATTACH]Untitled by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/92446505@N02/]|SK Photography|[/url], on Flickr I had to elongate the holes to move the bracket back further on both sides as well. After doing measurements the rear end is currently sitting square. From here I will just add plates to the outside and bolt through the wheel well sandwiching the thin metal. On the opposite side I will run a support bar from one side to the other like the strut tower brace. Finally the brackets will be welded to the car. It may not line up but its staying where she's at now. Pic below shows where my future bracing will be.
