Subframe is finally sandblasted and painted, now it's time for the rest of the rear-end.





Also made some dowel pins and welded them into the rear end so I dont ever have to measure where it goes again, although forgot to take pics... Oops

jesus that was fast!

Got everything all buttoned up on the ass end of the car, new hubs, calipers, pads, park brake shoes. Still waiting for my rotors to show up for the front and rear of the car.





Decided to slam the stock wheels (from an Alero) on it while I wait for my adapters (currently in the mail) and found that I'll have to shorten the trailing arms as they push the spindles/control arms back, causing the wheel to sit too close to the back of the car, and not centered.... which was the whole point of this swap anyways.



Also got the engine back in and all of the drivetrain done, still waiting on a couple studs and a gasket for my turbo, then the car will run again.

TRS tow strap installed:

Hoping my adapters show up tomorrow. I know my rotors will be here...

[Granny Gold]

That should look awesome.

[EuroNut]

moAr please?

[HooWybrow]

Rotors finally showed up today, so I got to assemble the brakes for the last time on all 4 corners, which felt great to get that off the list.





2000 camaro front rotors/pads and calipers.

2000 alero rear rotors/pads and calipers.

Camaro brakes on a Cav? I am learning all sorts of things that will know doubt take up space in my brain for important information.

pretty much standard if you mod a Jbody. Lots of guys actually use rear discs from Dodge Neons too haha

[HooWybrow]

I used to rip hard on cavaliers, I feel like an idiot now for spending so much on this fucking thing.

Le sigh.
