What I have been working on

[Sleeper]

I've got patience and I tried that crap with mine but it has a thin undercoat. I gave up.

Where is the before

Foam?

Sorry. Engine cleaner foam by Gunk.

[line-em-up]

Took 2 cans of foam and 4 cans of brake cleaner and lots if scrubbing.

Foam?

The underside looks factory.

[scootro]

damn you are good

[KBScobravert]

Tossed some paint on to cover the welds and coat the underside. Mounted up the ARB brackets.

I need to pull them and put some paint but the hard part is done.

DJ came over and helped me put in the battle box.



his welds look better than mine would have.

Viking rear coil overs showed up. These things are sexy as hell. Very well built.





Rear is torn down. Hopefully carrying to Brooks tomorrow or the next day.

I lost a bit of motivation after spending almost a year building my last car only to have the throttle hang wide open the first time I drove it. I jumped a median and hit the curb on the opposite of the road at 100+ mph. I am taking my time building this from the chassis up and it will be more of a dedicated track car.

As soon as I pressure wash it, I can take it over to him. I have it pulled apart and ready to go otherwise. I am in no real hurry as my engine, transmission, and complete interior are not even installed yet. I won't do any of that until I figure out the wiring. I still have a ton of stuff to get done before I worry about hanging the rear end.

Glad to hear that Baseline took care of you!

I'm over here trying to get my stuff done ASAP. Like, I would love to be hanging the rear Sunday/Monday. As soon as I get the rear apart, I am calling Brooks to set it up. I don't want to call him until it is ready and in the bed of the truck.

My Baseline stuff all came in as well. It does look to be great quality.I have to get my rear housing to Brooks so he can weld the tubes, cut down the ends, and set up the gears. I will install it all and get the car back to him to have the ARB welded a bit later.

When are you taking your rear to Brooks?

Mine is out and I am about to strip the guts out of it to take the housing to him also.

I need to spread a little word too about Baseline. I bought my lowers off the face books and they either didn't send the bolts and spacers or I lost them already. I sent Kevin an email asking "How much?". He shipped them within 20 minutes, free of charge. I didn't even buy them from him and he zero cost me. Awesome service.

I just got done pulling the rear in mine.

All my baseline stuff came in. This shit is NICE. The packaging is first rate, the powder coat is thick and smooth - looks and feels real durable.

All my MM stuff will be for sale next week.
