Cut off wheel and be very patient. Done many a northern car that were in worse shape than that. Let me know how it worked out for you.Found a hidden problem with the car today. Not installing the IRS just yet as it is still getting goodies thrown at it before install, but this little problem is going to be something I will get to address at that point:
Passenger side shock tower:
Driver side shock tower:
Why, why, why...
Any ideas how to fix this?
What causes that kind of damage? I've never seen anything like that before?
I have said it before and I will say it again, that car is beautiful!
That rear end is sweet! Nice score!
Thanks! I ended up getting it powdercoated and I had FTBR bushings installed in it as well. I'm just ready to get it in the car at this point. It has taken me a while to get to where I am with it. Hopefully I can start the install this weekend.
how about you just give me that irs, and ill give you mine. straight swap
Did you do just the bushing kit? Looks like you're sticking with the stock toe links and end links. Also stock sway bar or upgraded?
As of right now they are stock bumpsteer/toe links. I have pondered swapping those out too, just not sure I want to do it right now. I think it may be something I can do easily down the road. I believe its just the stock 03-04 sway bar. Either way this thing should be able to take some abuse and really love corners now. The stock 16 yr old suspension is leaving way too much to be desired right now.
Also, I have some H&R Red springs to go along with the IRS.
Yeah I can only imagine. The Mach 1 I'm picking up today has a fully built SRA so I'm hoping I can sell it or trade it to fund getting all the finishing parts of my IRS build and slap that baby onto the Mach. I'm trying to make it essentially indestructible.
Wait.. buying a mach for yourself? What happened to the gt in the sig?
