How are you planning to attach the wheel tub to the rear quarter panel?




Keeping to stock outer tub in place with a little massaging of the lip. Adding 3 1/2 inches and moving inner tub just flush with the rail after the rail it's self was modified.

You did an outstanding job fitting that trunk hinge panel.......however, that panel is pretty darn flexible, so it sure would have been easier to cut it off square, pull it over a tick and just weld it across the top...........LOL!!!!..........May have cut that 73 times to 2 or 3..........LOL!!!

Would have been easier but inner tub moved over 3 1/3 inches into this panel. The trunk lid tortion bars would have had to been shortened if I moved the panel over with the tub. There were a few cold ones and a lot of staring at it before grinder went in hand LOL. I wanted it to look like it was made like that.

No, I wasn't suggesting moving the hinges. If you look at the very first pic you show.......the hinge panel appears to come down at a bit of an angle towards the center of the trunk. If you had cut the hinge panel straight across the bottom and then just pulled it over a little, you could have welded it directly to top of tub............I know because I have done a few of these..........LOL!!!........but again, your fitting job is outstanding

Darts are definitely easier at the trunk support! You did a great very seamless tub job doing it how you did.


Mopar to the bone!!!

Can you measure from the frame rail to the wheel lip and tell us the dimension you now have?

Got the passenger side quarter almost finished last night. Will be able to get the wheels and tires up in there tonight to get the measurement for the new Strange S60! Going all out 40 spline, 5/8 drive studs, 3.70 gear, spool, strange dual rear caliper setup.
