On the list:
Finish crossmember modification
Make exhaust
Install battery and new cables
Turn down rear rotor a hair
Install calipers and bleed brakes

Wish me luck!

Not much! I finished modifying my crossmember and got it reinstalled. I got the front end back together. I got the front calipers installed.

I decided to ghetto rig my exhaust well enough to take it to an exhaust shop.

I should be able to get most of the rest of the stuff done this week, but it's definitely back to the DMV to get an extension on my temp reg.

Glad you got more work done than I did!

Thanks Mike! I'll be in the garage from 6:30pm until 10:30pm tonight, tomorrow, and Sunday, but it's down to little stuff now, so I should be good.

I gotta finish wiring the battery tonight and ghetto rig the exhaust. Throw the jackstands back under it and turn down the OD of the rear rotors (with a little inspiration from Ferris Beuler). Then just install the rear brake lines, bleed the brakes, and head over to the exhaust shop.

I just did a simple axle swap. Nothing like your build!:worship:






We need to go wheeling together this summer sometime. Get that thing going!
