Goph Posted July 31, 2004 Report Posted July 31, 2004 The paint look good. I should get some lowering springs for my car so the front and back would be at the same hight then, damn audio equipment make the back go down a inch or more. Quote
90TGP Posted July 31, 2004 Report Posted July 31, 2004 Niiiiiiice 8) Be carefuly with the lowering springs if they're going on the TGP. I had rubbing issues when I had mine. Everytime I made a turn, the tires would rub the fender flares. Quote
Gearhead43 Posted July 31, 2004 Author Report Posted July 31, 2004 looks complicated... Maybe I need to show you the HUD and DIC installation Pics ....... Quote
MIKELABZ Posted July 31, 2004 Report Posted July 31, 2004 its all about perspective... im sure if i ordered the parts and all, it wouldnt seem as complicated cause i would have a good idea of where they go... but looking on in the 3rd peson makes the project seem like theres more to it then there prolly actually is...

Exactly!!! If you where in the project at the beginning and followed it step by step.. It would all fit together.. One piece at a time... Quote
no1kicker Posted July 31, 2004 Report Posted July 31, 2004 Looks good, Dave. How much did the powdercoating run, if you don't mind me asking. I am thinking about a blue scheme for my engine bay. I would recommend you get some short bolts to help the install of the UD pulley. 3/8 x 16, go with around 1.25 inch length. This helped so much with my installation, as the long bolts that came with my puller bent and were useless. Quote
