Nice! Ran across this post today and love it! I was planning something very similar to this with my blazer! Love the pick n parts finds, i've been hunting my local yards for Xtreme parts with no luck for the past couple of months. I think I might have to suck it up and start looking for new ones.
Keep us posted man, I deff want to see what this ends up looking like. Oh and I got the 4th Gen F8 Firebird 5 Stars for mine. Can't wait to get them put on next weekend...!! |

Because of the longer wheelbase of the 4dr the rideability will greatly benefit fron the 12:1steering box. You can also have a larger torson bar installed inside the box.
