I am done installing the Jaguar independent rear suspension.
You can see where I beefed up the factory frame rail where the crosmember is installed.
The Control arms were custom made to connect to the front factory leaf spring perch.
The stabilizer bar mounts were also plated for strength.
Custom roll bar I fabricated.

It is currently a 6-point but it will be a 12-point and I will add subframe connectors soon.
Trunk sheet metal is complete
It is designed to house an aluminum fuel cell and clear exhaust underneath.
