Installed 2" drop springs to fix the additional ride height added by the new rear end. For whatever reason, the new rear raised the car over an inch. New springs put it down to 8.25"in the front and...

I definitely had an “‘atta boy” moment. He’s a pretty careful and conscientious kid, so I was kind of surprised, but he is 16.

To earn the man card he has to learn to drive the T/A.

The auto shop at my son's school had their annual car show/fundraiser tonight. This year we were able to take both cars since my son has his license, but he still hasn't mastered the clutch yet so he...

I have regular shocks bolted directly to the rear end so I think what I have going on is a different. They aren't rubbing, just a little too close for comfort. For now I added a washer between the...

Are those for the coilover brackets or traditional shocks? I was thinking I needed something to move the shock away from the axle a little bit.

The new driveshaft fits perfect. I don't think there's any risk of breaking this beast! Plenty of room around the x-pipe. It is heavy though. I kind of wish I asked about aluminum.

I know ‘68 is completely different, but I didn’t have to remove the condenser to install mine. I dropped the valence, which I guess would be the bumper in your case, and pulled the right side grille...

It definitely adds up. I didn’t even consider an aluminum one as I assumed I’d have to go up to a 4”. The one I have on the way from Inland is about the same price as yours from PST.

It’s a .875 I got from GM years ago. I thought about upgrading to a 1” since I have a big sway bar on the front but it’ll have to wait until my bank account recovers from this swap.
