My name is Russell Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Starting the diff setup again. Doing everything from the beginning properly. Adding camber, replacing seals, painting, fitting mounts and making proper blocks, running break lines and cables, calipers all mounted up, making panhaed rod, tramp bar and hopefully fitting once to have everything done With grill and heater bowl test fitted to cover all the above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My name is Russell Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 precision 2" lowering blocks completed. Cheers Aiden McBride racing. He turned up a bolt on the lath with a thread tapped into the block and retaining nut on the inside. Everything nice tight n precise which is a little odd.

My name is Russell Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 Did the drive shaft loop last nigh, i wanted it so that the bottom bar (painted in grey) could be removed easily. So i made it so that the top loop and the sandwich plate inside the body could be bolted in place and the grey bar slide over top of the bolts and be bolted in place separately. Had four braided lines made up FRONT REAR But these are what I'm excited about! ... my new break resiviors! ... Was having a few problems finding a way to plumb my other ones into the pedal box, as the sizes didn't match. So when i went to ABC i asked for advice, he went for a hunt out back and came back with these, STOCKED and only $10 each!. And i can solid plumb them into the pedal box! allot nicer than using rubber and clamps. They make the Palmside ones look like rubbish. With these ones having proper caps and fittings.

My name is Russell Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 Fitted the oil catch tank and made up the breather plumbing. Mounted the clutch resiviour on the passengers side of the engine bay, had to make my own brackets on this side so made them out of stainless and i think they turned out better than the brought ones. Mounted the handbrake system, took me two goes, the 1st time i fitted everything, was working mint etc then decided to check clearances of gearstick DOW, had none! .... so started again moving the unit 150mm back and welded up the original hole.
