Well thats another thing, trying to do it cheaply...Well Rick, boxing the uppers and lowers is free for me to do, i have so much plate steel and angle, channel, square tubing laying around i could probably build a Eifle Tower. So thats prob the first thing im going to do. Then i got some spare 4 banger springs laying around someplace, then i already got the MM frame connectors. IM not really trying to race the car, im just trying to make it hook hard and cheaply. Other than the 6 point cage we just ordered im not trying to cut or weld anymore on the frame or body.
See...thats the predicament im in....i can't just blow mybe $1,500-$2,000 at once...im on a fixed income so in the long run its more exspensive, but its better for me to do it that way, because i can buy stuff here and there. Ive also been searching Ebay..nothing found yet though.
So heres the game plan we decided on for now...
So far this plan is free for me to do, since im using all parts i already have laying around.
Box the upper and
lower control arms...
Install 4 banger springs up front...
un-bolt front sway bar...
Use set of ET slicks i have in my garage....
Take out anything thats not really helping us (Removed AC, smog, Cats, sound deadening, etc. already..more to come.)
Then me and dad are going to fab. up some torque box re-enforcements.
And install the 3.73 gear ive had for about a year.
And then drive all the way to Georgia to run it and see how much we've taken off our baseline...Im thinking with all that we should at least get to about 14.00 mybe a little better....
