today i finished the steeringbox part.. its raised 4cm thats about 1.6inch. enough space for going low!
i also had the time to take a picture of my finished right side..
i´m happy with the result!
here are some shots of the steeringbox work.. i know it was seen several times, but for me it is something special, because i did everything by myself!
..the finished work!
