I went with a Standard Motor Products AC176 AIC as I've read some good reviews on it was think $60. So far its doing good.

Speaping of kits to do them I did mine using the Astro Pneumatic 7897 master kit and it worked great.

Just wanted to add when I welded in my pans I purchased the Esab rebel EM215ic. Its dual voltage and works great. As others said buy one that can also do 220v and don't go cheap...as in a cheap made one. Mine had a rebate think out the door was maybe $800. Buy a good helmet and I have noticed a...

I went fron the stock 1 hole injectors on my 2000 to 12 hole Bosch injectors and right off the bat I noticed a good improvement in throttle response, smoother idle and somewhat better gas mileage to work in back twice gas needle did not move as far as before but has not been a tank yet.

Sure I'm too late but anyway I got mine (went to the 12 hole ones from 1 hole) from Dimar Motorsport. Came rebuilt and lifetime warranty. Supposed to have been flow matched.

Either as stated above go pre-formed or get the easy bend one with the copper. Also If I remember correctly the brake lines have to have the double flare and also if going stainless they don't get double flared but gets a 47 degree flare instead of a 37 degree flare so they require a different...

Thanks, finally got around to take it for front end alignment they only charged me $25. Guy asked me who rebuilt the front end as he hardly ever sees one that close to specs after a rebuild.

You doing the lines yourself? I just replaced all my lines and hoses on my 2000..well except for the rears as the looked good and someone had already did the long one going from front to back. If doing yourself and ordered pre-bents the passenger front was a pain on mine even though it came in...

I'm in Georgia so we don't get snow that often but I do remember back in 83 we had like 5 inches and we got out my friends VW beetle (1969) It would not go anywhere until we took off the wide wheels and tires on back and put the factory size back on...so maybe skinny ones do do better or maybe...

Thanks

Just want to say I got it done also replaced front/rear brakes, front calipers, master cylinder and front brake lines as they were rusted pretty bad. Was going to replace rear lines too but someone had already replaced the one from the front that goes to the rear. rear cylinders looked good so...

OK thanks.

Naw, I have the EM 215IC MIG WELDER so no stitch welding. Knew I should of went with the Rebel EMP 215ic as I think it does but was afraid more functions more stuff to tear up.

Was planning on doing spot welds as I was told due to the carbon that would be the best...do a spot clean and spot again clean and repeat. Is that true. Stitch guess you mean going top to bottom of the worn area just space them out then fill in between?

Thanks everyone think I'm just gonna use the .024 and turn up speed and preheat also.

Got some grooves to fill in where the pads rubbed and wondering about wire size to use. Right now my welder is set up for .024 as its what I used for welding my floor pans in with. I have some .030 wire but no tip and some flux core wire think its .034 but I never liked using flux core...

Just wanted to update...All leaks are now fixed...well covered with urethane sealant and direct spraying with water hose no water inside cab now. Finally after a couple of months working on replacing/sealing the pans and all comes the fun of putting everything back in and trying to remember...

Well went ahead and used whats left of my 3m urethane seam sealer and think I have everything filled up..lol...and sure nothing leaking but has not cured enough to check leak at hvac box at blower motor but sure it will be OK. Still going to try and get a wiring harness with a good seal for the...

Finally got my new pans welded,sealed and painted (well waiting for paint to completely dry as it rained 4 days straight after painting with enamel). Found 3 water leaks on drivers side: 1) steering column seal at firewall leaks. 2) Previous owner cut seal where wires comes thru drivers...

Thats what I'm thinking about doing...just wish I did not throw away the old non working drier 4 months a ago would of been good for some free patch metal!
