You could have used a 2" hole saw to cut the rubber in the center. didn't show you anything that I taught him?

Maybe you guys installed the bushing backwards :p

Need to put a few coffers into the garage fund after recuperating from the turbo and supporting mods purchases. I would like to buy a rolling jack for the lift so I dont have to engineer a solution for taking the wheels off while on the lift.

LOL yea...

I've been looking at this one: https://www.harborfreight.com/3-ton-...ump-64241.html
I saw it on sale once, years ago for $159. Probably just bite the bullet soon.

Oh now I see what you mean by rolling lol... that one is just a hair nicer and more convenient than the one I posted. Probably only a hair more expensive, too ;)

Thanks, man. It is a lot of fun, lots of little things to do yet though.


Oh I remember those days. Chuck and I did mine in two weekends. One weekend of tear down and mechanical and the second was fuel and electronics. Fired up first time!

I hope she fires up on the first try! i have to admit I am pretty nervous and hitting that button will be suspenseful to say the least.

Just don’t rush it and double check your work before you move on.

:iagree:

JC and I work in a similar fashion. We are not very fast at doing jobs but they are done correctly before moving on. I have a big to do checklist that I cross items off of. Everything will absolutely get a second and third look over before I feel confident in hitting the starter. :tup:

We were completely anal about it. I bet I have nothing short of a hundred zip ties securing stuff, stopping rattles, protecting heat, etc.

The heat shielding and routing of lines is one of my main concerns.

I ran all my pneumatic lines thru thermotec heat sleeve. Worked great.
