has that man just chopped out the front turrets and welded them into the back?

is this possible to do as then you'll be able to adjust all sorts of angles with your fancy new beam set up beef

from the looks of andys pic hes ran a wider turret and a slotted box section on the top to adjust the in/out of the strut ,

just not sure what rear shock he was using , i assume like a cossie rear coilover with the eye on the top ,


yeah i plan on putting them in to go with the rear end in mine ,

turrets sat waiting in my garage lol
