The ABSOLUTE BESTEST part about this phase........bolting new and freshly refurbished parts onto a freshly refurbished front end..........my hands aren't getting dirty!


Tomorrow my new coils springs, KYB shocks and outer shock towers get installed!
I should have my Idler arm bracket and my new pitman arm delivered Tues or Weds.......( I splurged and bought M.U.'s quick steer kit!), then I can bolt in the steering!

I'm still waiting on (5) caliper pistons to come in (on back order) before I can finish rebuilding my calipers.........I think I'm gonna wait until next Spring before I install the discs and calipers......that's why I have plastic taped around the spindles right now....................

HELL YA!
Coil springs are in, I've gotta locate the hardware for the outer shock tower covers and the shocks so I can install them, steering box is back in, just need my Pitman arm and Idler bracket to install all o' that, then it's just a few minor pieces before I start working on my "Winter" projects.........one of which is to re-paint the engine.
The co. that makes POR15 also has an engine paint kit (start by stripping, cleaning and POR15-ing).......gonna make sally's engine look purdy and new.....can't put a dirty ol' engine back in her now!

Is the steering linkage now the V8 version or still the 6 cylinder version?

did you do the full V8 conversion?

I am assuming not since you mentioned a singular valve cover.

To bad you were not closer to the left coast. I have picked up most of the V8 swap stuff for really cheap. I just picked up some granada spindles for 25 bucks,
