Ive been working on mine all week as I took off to try to get some upgrades done Today is the only day I havent been under it.... I got the front end and borgeson done monday. Currently the rear end is out and a new rear end is assembled and waiting to go in once I get all the parts to finish replacing the trailing arms and bearings and such... The universals were fun...(not really) and I gave up trying to remove the rear shock mounts so I bought replacements as ill be cutting the old ones out. All in all though its been enjoyable. The car is going to sit at least 1.5- 2 inches lower when im done and next I tackle getting the new 406 and overdrive transmission swapped in.
