Preliminary drawing from Team 321 showing my frame rails lined up with the IRS Cage rails
Closeup of the Shockwaves fitted to the control arms to verify no interferences
Preliminary drawing showing 8" ride height (red), and Team 321 IRS Cage with "factory" dimensions. Dwg shows the cage needs to be extended up to match my ride height. IRS Cage drawn with 28" tire diameter.
Addition of the 305/40ZR20 (32" diameter) to confirm no interference with AOS, control arms and spindles. The large diameter tires brought up the IRS cage height to within 1/2" of my frame rail ride height
Side drawing showing adjustment to the IRS Cage that needs to be done
Delmo Wheels. 2 piece billet aluminum, made to any backspace, offset, and diameter up to 24".
