I met up with my buddy this weekend and he gave me the dyno sheets from 3/17/00! I think the car did fairly well for what it is, I have attached the sheets, let me know what you guys think...

269/311 looks like the best run.

Well I had to pull my rear bumper cover to have the paint fixed (it was bubbling/peeling in one area) under warranty so I figured I would take some pics of the bumper cover removed. I am very pleased to see the minimal damage that still exists from the car being wrecked. Also swapping out some bulbs for LED's.

Anyway here are some pics for you guys.

Default Update

Ok everyone, I installed the bumper cover yesterday, cleaned the interior, took care of some little issues and washed the heck out of the car. I still need to do some scratch remover and then wax the car, but I ran out steam.

Here are the pics.

This weekend I ordered UMI sub frame connectors and Founders Adjustable Track Bar and Axle Relocation Brackets. I also changed the oil and worked on my dash pad. I cant wait to get the new parts installed!

Also ordered a black billet grille so I can cover the fog lamp openings and install my LED driving lights. Im hoping to get a set of replica 17" ZR1 wheels next, I really want some 315's on the rear of this thing. Help me decide, should I go with the painted silver of the polished wheel?

Polished would look better on a black car

Update time, I received my sub frame connectors yesterday and put them on this morning. I have to say that this was the easiest, best fitting aftermarket part I ever remember installing, the UMI stuff is awesome!

I put the front wheels on ramps, the rear on jack stands at the inner frame rails, supported the axle with the floor jack to get the control arms parallel and they slid right on.

Here are some pics, sorry for the crappy cell phone quality...

Very nice. I'm installing UMI K member and a arms, ect. UMI makes some good stuff. Every set of UMI SFC I have put in have fit great. I've been working on mine since 2003. Screwed my back up at work. Thats why it's been so long. Love the car..

Thank you very much, I hope to get the K-member/front suspension, torque arm relocation/torque arm, etc from them someday... but its baby steps for now. Sorry to hear about your back, that sucks! Thank you, I love this car, just received my adj track bar and relocation brackets as well.

Ordered my wheels and tires yesterday, so I hope to have them done in a week or so. I am going to do the Jeep bump stops and probably paint my calipers while Im at it. I also need to change the rear diff fluid and clean some stuff up while its on the jack stands.

Completed my Jeep bumpstops today, I just cut off the factory lip, undercoated the wheel wells and bolted on the stops. I might still fab up a couple of thin spacers to help spread out the load more evenly, but not sure its needed. Any opinions either way?






Also when you guys modify for 17x11" ZR1's, do you just bash in the area above the bump stops for clearence? I havent received my wheels yet, but I was curious. I read the sticky about it, but wasnt sure what was done with this area normally, I guess Ill have to see if I need too when i get the wheels...
