ordered the MMR complete drivetrain mount kit last Saturday and they came in today
https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...21206806_n.jpg once I get some stuff sold I'll be ordering the energy suspension bushing kit will have pics of before and after installation but it may be a little bit since I'll be having some sand blasting and painting done |
great job
Did you have to deal with any rust issues? especially on the pinch welds?
|
where are you talking about specifically? most of my suspension parts are rusted besides what I've replaced but I'll be having all that sand blasted when the time and money is right

Why don't you sand blast them yourself?

Money saved vs money spent...my dad had one from when he had a shop so i used that, but they run around $50 right? Maybe more maybe less. I think of it this way...if I only would need to spend $100 and have my equipment for life or pay someone $120 to do the work for me I would save the $20 and invest in the thing I needed. It's crazy that people charge around $50 to blast one rim.
That's just my opinion tho. |

Looking good Jimmy! Let me know how that drivetrain mount kit works out. I suspect it'll stiffen things up some and give a little better direct power flow, right?
Interested in selling that old three spoke wheel? |
hey, what wing is that? paint and the wing slightly make it look like a Porshe 944, very cool

The rear tire/rim looks out of place haha. Maybe you need a wider front rim...
Either way pretty nice man 17x9 rear I would love to get another set of 17x9's for the front but at the moment I'm not too worried about it, thanks man I appreciate that |

Wide body, eh? Let's see 'er once you get those "From beyond the heavens" wheels and fenders on!
You still got the interior stripped and just the one race seat? |
