Allreveup- I"ve actually delt with Lee before, I have one of his boxes on my Trans-Am, and he is a great company to deal with. dieselpony- I Had some slight clearance issues with my crossover and stock crossmember; I trimmed a small piece off and that fixed the issue 99% of the time. That us...

Yeah, hydro assist is definitely in the cards. It actually doesn't get too bound up until you get into big rocks, but when its bound up, it's really bound up. I've been weighing my options, and I've almost decided on ordering a kit from trail gear; it seems like nice middle of the road stuff...

Yep, Forgot to add that I actually had to put a pie cut on the inside flange on each inner fender to get them to bend back far enough. I the re-drilled a hole to allow them to bolt to a flange on the body. They are basically wedged up against the fire wall. Forgot to mention, my wheels are...
