I feel like I've been in slow motion and I don't like that. The truth is, this was a busy weekend with lots of events and the car wasn't one of them. This is what I have accomplished with going in early and staying after work. I wish I had another day to get 6-8 hours in.
ABS with lines installed.
Hydroboost lines hooked up.
Half a coil cut from each spring. I used fox body V8 springs. I hope it's enough because they were still a PITA to install with that PITA internal spring compressor. Lowering springs drop in with NO spring compressor, should forked out the extra $230 bucks.
LH
suspension. 96-04 spindles, new Monroe Sensitrac struts, fox body V8 spring with 12 a coil cut.
RH
suspension. 96-04 spindles, new Monroe Sensitrac struts, fox body V8 spring with 1/2 a coil cut.
Spring compressor internal use only. This would scratch the crap outta your newly painted stock springs. Of course getting the parts of the tool out of the springs was fun. A big pry bar and a couple large screw drivers helped. Of course the once pretty
LCA's are now nicked and scratched up. LOL. But, this isn't a show car. This will be driven around a lot!
Next up, I want to get the hubs cleaned up, get the rotors installed, paint the calipers and install them, then wire this thing up and start it.
