Guest Anonymous Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 You can also use a Southside machine lift bar kit...comes with subframes,lift bars, and a front crossmember (like lader bars). A buddy of mine had an 82 TA with an unusual setup that worked...the original LCAs were boxed, and had a tab welded to the front top of them with a link (steel rod with spherical rod ends on both ends) that connected to another bracket welded to the rearend. It was definitely a home brewed setup (done by a previous owner), but it worked, and was probably cheap to build. The pinion angle was adjustable, which would be a good idea anyway for maximum bite.
