The back is already done. With the exception of the oversteer, I am happy with the rear.
Here is a pic of the rear:
The upper tri-link was installed, but I do not have pictures of it.
I just placed the front axle. With some lower arms that I have and using the stock front lower frame mounts, I am at 116" wheel base.
Here is a screenshot of my calcs (you have to manually enter the website - damn page blockers!!!!!!!!!):

You can't read the number real good, but here is they are:
Front Geometry Summary:
Anti-Squat 17 %
Roll Center Height 26 in
Roll Axis Angle 14.88 degrees (Roll Oversteer)
Instant Center X-Axis -88 in
Instant Center Z-Axis -8 in
Rear Geometry Summary:
Anti-Squat 84 %
Roll Center Height 28 in
Roll Axis Angle 4.18 degrees (Roll Oversteer)
Instant Center X-Axis 93 in
Instant Center Z-Axis 41 in
Go ahead....flame away. My real question is, do you think 116" wheel base with 42" tires is to long? I will have about 26" ground clearance under the t-case skid.
