Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
Trailing arm member installed and arms installed...
 Now she sits so hard I can't get the jack out... And its a super low profile jack too   Also traded a guy from work, my old truck LQ9 oil pan for a corvette alternator/PS bracket! Should be picking up the alternator from him tomorrow.

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
Well, I managed to splurge to get a new torque converter from Circle D Industries, 30" tilt keyless floor shift column, and new bell housing for my trans this last week in hopes of getting the engine in, and the truck rolling...
I ended up finishing up the install of my ACCUAIR VU4 manifold, 5 gal tank and SwitchSpeed controller. Then this weekend I go to get the torque converter installed and mate the engine to the trans only to find out my pump on the trans is shattered! Just ordered the new pump and seal kit today... Hoping to get the engine and trans in the truck this weekend! |

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
Progress has been made ladies and gents... With many beads of sweat and many more choice vocabulary, the engine and trans are in!!!
It only took a new set of engine perches from Nate and a large hole in the floor   Just in time to get transported to her new home in Utah!

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
Well, its been a sad week... I had to sell the truck in efforts to pay off some debts. She left the garage yesterday for her new home. The new owner will do it well, and give it the finishing it deserves.
Thanks for the following guys, I really appreciate all the love |
