more progess today. got the correct transmission crossmember so thats taken care of. The driveshaft is in as well. Stock FB shaft works just fine.
Also got the header and the P/S pump what not on but loosely attached since i cant find most of the freaking bolts and i was tired so i said hell with it for the night... Also also the brakes are on the front now, in full 5 lug force. Aquired a second GXL wheel and will get the rally tires swapped onto them tomorrow after work. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...7/IMAG0024.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...7/IMAG0025.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...7/IMAG0026.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...7/IMAG0027.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...7/IMAG0028.jpg |
rally tires are on the GXL wheels and the car is on the ground for the first time!!

Ride height with some weight missing. Granted the fenders were cut for the flares so it looks higher than it is. Its really about stock ride height if anything. maybe a little higher. But the clearances look good to me.
Been spending a fair amount of time getting the interior tar out. Along with fiddling with other minor things. Starting to assemble the engine. Lower intake manifold is on, purchased new injector seals for the injectrs. EGR block off plate is on, etc. Need some stock power steering lines as well... http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/...allyx7aaaa.jpg |

more progress! All the tar is out, and i mean all! Went so far as to use a wire brush cup on the angle grinder and removed the last of the residue with acyetone. Im mid move (hense car being outside, ready to go to the other house) so i wont get much done this week. But once i get at the other place, i plan on getting the rear for the flares. Ill be using weld in nut-certs to hold them in place. I also feel like the front is a touch too high. We shall see though. Its certainly higher in the front than the rear. Mud flaps will go on soon too, just waiting on the rear flares.
Also sprayed a truck bed liner into the floorboards for driver / passenger. Rest of the interior will be sprayed white when im feeling up to huffing fumes again. http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/...llyX7/car1.jpg http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/...X7/inside1.jpg |
