Vert Restoration 101!!! (heavy) - UPDATE 2014
#181
Little by little. I have been extremely busy. I've been offered a new job from Norfolk Southern Railroad. If that happens id expect to have it complete before next summer. There are a lot of things still undecided through out the build, mainly related to electronics, Rear suspension, driveshaft. It is moving along though. In the mean time I picked up a Z32 and another Black FC(not pictured). Both really clean vehicles. Picked up a Seadoo 951. Finally got my brothers car in color (thank the lord), don't have many pictures of it. More Pics to come when assembled. A friend contact me to help him out as his vehicle (Eagle Summit) is in Ohio not running and he lives in VA. The previous work was not up to par, one thing led to another and the list of half *** stuff kept on getting longer. I did as much as I could in the amount of time i had. He ended up driving it back to VA.

Cobra 8.8, Strange Chromoly yolk, 4.56 gear
Custom axle seal spacers. This converts the 8.8 explorer axle seal to be any ford straight axle axle seal, standard cobra ect. I can get a seal at any parts store in america for pennies.
Ted Loctited them in. Cross fingers nothing leaks and it all works.
DriveShaftShop PRO LEVEL Axle/ Hub combo.
