    • Tested rear relay for the trunk


      Had to crawl on trunk, remove light and disengage the trunk with a flathead screwdriver, you can see key release unbolt.....

      You can see dust.... shame on me

      3 years without seeing this.

      Damn a garage is usefull !



      relay seems to have "vers de gros cris"

      • Washed the GF car




        Changed the orange "redline"









        Need to put the rear on candellas.




        Weightreduction


        Wiper motor.


        Spindle mod.
        Before with the C shaped part



        After ("C" shaped part to bolt the bracket)


        The only thing left is to "tape" holes for the Galiper bracket and torque wheels studs

          Rear brakes removed, got diff oil, it's sticky.

          Comment


          • Diff had a lot of loose on the shaft

            Problem was the counter-bore needed to be before the Caliper plate
            Before :



            After :

            You can see the sandwich




            But the disk is not enligned and hit the caliper bracker right now :


            I will need to shim the disk hub.
            Testing how much shim I need


            I will need to put 3'' studs in remplacement of the cutted 2'' because the new 0.5inch spacer will not have it's own studs.

            With the shim everything will be fine. Wilwood don,t give a shit about 12bolts Strange diff and their kit. The offset of the axle is incorrect


            Bracket it now enligned.

            • Not going to lie I really don't like these 80's chevys, but this is the cleanest one iv ever seen! Car looks grate! Glad to see you going through the brakes and suspension and not just putting more power into the car. This is how I would have done it if I had one!

              Also a cool idea with the hoonigan sticker I might borrow that idea down the road if you don't mind.

                    Yesterday I finished to install the front caliper bracket.

                    Tapping a hole is not easy for the first time, not enought deep lol. I need a new bolt.

                    Still waiting for the rear disk hub spacer , but I moked up the shit.

                          • Longer wheel bolt done. 3/8X20 3'' grade 8


                            Sandwich done, plenty of threads left.


                            As you can see.


                            Car is still on 4 blocks


                            The sticker will be lower and the "But this sticker is awsome" section will be cut.


                            I will not do that, I will put that sticker somewhere on the garage.


                            Then it snowed for the first time of the year.


                            After that we drank.
