The undercarriage has been upgraded with tubular A-Arms with dropped spindles up front and out back a Ford 9 differential is supported by a custom four-link rear suspension. The differential is stuffed with 3.70:1 gears which nicely complement the 4L65-E overdrive automatic transmission for great low-end pull but the ease of cruising on the highway with low RPMs. The brakes have been upgraded to four-wheel power assisted disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors. The fuel and brake lines are all new as well. The floorboards and frame are free of rust and any indications of any collision repair.
