Default More progress pics 2

New steering wheel




Mufflex mockup, Pops had to change the angle over the axle because of the sump tank.The muffler had to move forward.








Pops made his own panhard rod re-locator to lower it down, bought another one out of a junkyard, made it longer, made brackets and dropped it down.

Smokn....if you look closely at the pics it has billet aluminum LCA's, they are built and sold by a guy on this board(cant remember who) he also sells them on E Bay.But we popped for the chrome moly heim ends, not the teflon coated ones.


Tom....thanks, the old man is a crafty one.....he took the two braces cut them on an angle to give extra length and made the bracket to lower it. Works very well..this little exhaust endeavour has been a pain in the ***, we still have to build a 3.5 inch Y pipe, we are going to mod the floor brace under the drivers feet to move the pipe up so it dont srape every pebble in the road.

Looks like you are working Pop's butt off. He must be one handy dude.

Looks good, Ed

Ed, well gotta give the kudos where they are due...I been kinda sick and outta pocket, he has picked up the slack. We are planning to tow up there for a tune in the summer. When we get closer I will send the ECM for a mailorder break-in tune.


Moparnos, just the brackets wont get er done...gotta lengthen the brace also.


Thanks
