Assembled everything together today. Getting out the OEM bushings from the RUCA's wasn't too bad. Same goes for the spindle bushings... if you have tools that can make it work.











Next up: subframe risers, new toe rods, and then installation.

i got started earlier today, but i didnt get to work that much. I just got my box settled in, so tomorrow comes the circuit breaker, the kill switch, and routing wires.

Big shout out to Dat and Jay over at Vertex-USA!


Gross 25 year old shift boot:


Gangster genuine leather, Vertex shift boot:


Finally fitted that grommet on the fire wall to protect the wire.


I also got some aluminum tape to seal up those fire wall holes!


I have too many reasons why i had to remove the dash.


I got started with the fuse box relocation and open wheel wells.
heres the old power wire for the box.


thought this crimp was a good place to attach the new 8ga power cable.


power cable soldered, shielded, &heat shrunken.



unsoldered and re-soldered the harness on the outside.


no zipties here!



I put the ignitor and resistor pack under the fuse box. Now I just have to extend some plugs accordingly.


decided to call it a day after I made my block to chassis ground
