Cradle tech final saga

Finished the cradle tonight, its up super high, therefore helping all my arms be as straight as possible and allowing me to go lower withought effecting performance too much. Notice the studs on the chassis holding the cradle, i used a M20x1.5 Die nut to make the threads and cut the excess off. Im rapt with how it worked, cant wait to drive it.

Need a lot more info on this. Please do another post with details.

What did you do to make the arms not hit the chassis under load?

Was modifying the rear knuckles necessary to work with this?

Is 55mm the max you can lift it until where the diff hits?

etc etc etc
