Front Suspension Finally Completed...


Almost... I guess. As seen in the pic, we've completed all of the control arms, and their mounting points. Turned out pretty good. We still have to mount the coilovers to complete the front suspension, but I can't think of a single company that make coilovers for a 280Z with a 240SX subframe. I guess that means we have to make more stuff. Here's what we did...


Here's the shock mount we made to fit the Z. To get this finished product in this picture, we had to make several alignment tools and a punch.




Here's the pic of the upper shock mount and the punch we made. It's an interesting exercise in manufacturing.
