This is my idea for my upper A-arms. This is the original ball joint from the alfa. with some mods I think this might work. The forward arm will be lengthened and a heim joint added to the inboard end. THe rear arm will be shortened threaded and heim joint added to inboard side.

I relocated my 4 link axle link to the rear of my axle. This made my links 14" long , instead of 9". Everything I read says make links as long as possible. I still have to box in the brackets.
This is how I did my corners. I could not find anyone who could bend 1" tubing to 2" or 3" radii.
A local machine shop ordered these stainless steel corners for me.
Today I worked on the 4 link suspension. here are pics of the first trial fit.

Today I set the axle in place. WOOHOO it is going to fit. Now I just have to figure out a good way to center it up in chassis. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
I went to a "7" gathering in Kansas City this weekend. This was one of 14 cars there. Lots of inspiration
