Forum is play'n nasty tricks on me...............

 

another manual pic

 

how hard was the steering rack to change?

 

engine..........

 

My compliments on your organization and "small parts management."



Good luck as you complete your project!

 

My playground

it was clean.......about two engines ago

 

Errrr... Umm, at least the zip lock bags are a nice touch!

 

here's where the parts go when they get too big for the garage....

the graveyard!

 

All in all I didnt' get **** done.......partly b/c i was locked in a junk yard.........but got some free parts out of the deal...

If you use a impact it will be a lot easier.

For the ppl that have done the manual conversion do you use the FC tie rods/ends?

when I lined them up the FC's were about 2 inches shorter. It was hard to tell b/c my FC's tie rod was broken. I didnt' look like there would be enough thread left to be safe.

The FD tie rods do not fit the FC's (figured I could try that since the rack it's self is the exacty same lenght).

In a couple weeks' I'll prolly go junkyard diving again......

 

Nice, kind of looks like my yard.

 

it's my parents yard.............

but only reason they let me do that is b/c I fix what they break on their cars and they think it's better than play'n video games.

go figure

 

there is a post somewhere on here about the correct parts to get the FC rack to work...let me see if i can find it..

 

what kind of manuel rack is it?? FC ???
cuz i m going to do a manuel conversion too soon or later... maybe in summer break

 

JOE DIRT!

 

Haha!! I was going to say Deliverance but Joe is more on the money!

 

daanng!

 

The military won't let me have a mullet.................

I would love a heated garage and enough room to pull my car all the way in.

I had the luxury of using a shop once..... it was almost too easy to work on stuff.........

btw this is where Joe Dirt lives











-red FC in back and the FD are mine. The other FC I gave to a friend.

 

Looks like quite the project there Jason

 

Looks like several projects there.

 

Watch out for the 500hp shadow sitting next to the fcs!

Yeah my dad often makes fun of my cars........

"If only they were reliable as my shadow..............."

After the rebuild though, it's solid and nothing has broken in about 1/2 year (crosses fingers).
