    I'm also a CAD designer using Solidworks and I can judge the amount of time he passed on his computer to get there. He had some late nights alone in the dark for sure 😂

    I know you’re going for the stock look, but would love to see a 2-door conversion. It’s looking fantastic, great work!

    Mind-blowing work, fabrication and engineering. Also very surprised the whole thing didn't flip on the lift with so much weight on the back of the car and none on the front!!! 🤔

    Very cool build! Would You be willing to share the 4-link calculator results for this specific build? Would be interesting to see since I have a leaf spring to 4-link conversion on hand myself...

    Loving this build! The videos would be improved by stopping the music while Mike is talking, in my opinion.
