Nice build!!

*project 67 sub* · 01-14-2011, 05:39 PM

thanks, still a long way to go though

**kev2809** · 01-14-2011, 06:34 PM

hey bro, heres a few pics of the driver side shock..

top mount..

bottom mount..

i havent checked it fully compressed yet since im working on painting the stock wheels, but when im done and get them back on and back on the ground ill snap a pic a see what it looks like compressed

*project 67 sub* · 01-14-2011, 06:41 PM

ok sweet thanks. how much did those run and where did you get them at???

**kev2809** · 01-14-2011, 06:43 PM

they were about 23 bucks a piece at o'reilly, but i believe any parts store should carry them for about them price

i was gonna ask you, are you running/plan on running a front sway bar?

*project 67 sub* · 01-14-2011, 06:52 PM

at the moment i am running a sway bar, but plan on removing it after i put the bags in. that and the bags will all be independent from each other and have individual valves, gonna run at least 8 valves total. so i will not have any need for it, that and i want to be able to hit s/s, so thats also another reason why i will be removing it.

*project 67 sub* · 01-15-2011, 04:26 AM

did some modification work on my new das that will end up in the burb. still need to cut the radio hole and do a few other things. might get it blasted but not sure on that yet.

wow!

*project 67 sub* · 01-15-2011, 06:47 PM

haha yup lol, used an old cut up street sign that i have had. it was thicker metal, but that will work out better for me and the stereo. i also might end up putting in a newer tilt column with key in column, as they are probably alot cheaper and easier to find. but not to new as i dont think i want lights and wipers on the column. but we will see.

67chevy1series · 01-15-2011, 06:49 PM

thats cool does your old dash have the holes for the parking brake cover

*project 67 sub* · 01-15-2011, 07:04 PM

not sure, let me go check as i have a cover in the garage, also i have no e brake lol.

edit: one of them is thier, not sure about the other as i have a horn button in the way. the new dash doesnt have any of the holes their

67chevy1series · 01-15-2011, 07:06 PM

*project 67 sub* · 01-17-2011, 02:47 AM

did a little more work on the replacement dash, wire wheeled the paint off, and cut out the radio hole. i offset the hole to the right because i am going to add a push button starter on the left side of it. i also might add a few other things as well but not sure yet, and i would have to figure out what exactly that would be first lol.

*project 67 sub* · 01-17-2011, 03:26 AM

67chevy1series · 01-17-2011, 03:29 AM

*project 67 sub* · 01-17-2011, 03:36 AM
