Im installing a 4 inch lift on my project loyale. i cut the block according to Nicks instructions. So the question is, is this where they go? It would make sense i just want to make sure. I assume the smallest block also mounts here. Thanks!

I can save it!

Got alot done! pictures soon

The washer fluid fuel pump idea is awesome. Some mice had chewed through the vacuum canister on my loyal. The car was a push button rwd so i needed vacuum. Lots of tape a water bottle and a big hose clamp!

Did you leave your sway bars on?

Also had the Misses blast all the green slime/ crusty pollen off. Looks way better!

Should be getting the rest of the lift blocks today! All that's left for the lift is to buy the bolts and fab the diff drop. scavenged some steel plate from an abandoned warehouse for the diff drop. Hopefully ill get the trans pulled tonight. planning on getting some Rx seats from a friend. What will hopefully be done by next week: Trans Pulled Motor Pulled Paint and prep engine bay Finish removing carpet Finish fixing/ dressing wiring harness At least get strut spacers on Next update will be picture heavy! cheers

Woo! Thanks Scott! Getting ready to pull the tranny and engine. Still gotta time the ej. While the ej is out anybody recommend any upgrades?

Cool thanks guys, ill update with my findings.

Can you attach the ea pump to the ej and just use that? My ej's pump is gone.

Whoops didn't even think about that. Sorry! Fixed.

Oh thanks for letting me know. I will pm when I pull the single range if you are serious.

Fixing a goof up from earlier. Wish I owned more than one jack!

No I'm serious! My friend hooked me up. I'm so happy! Sjr struts should be in the mail and drop blocks are in the machine shop. Soon! Just need a duel range

I got so ripped off today. $50 for all!

Makes sense. i just didnt want to break something. thanks

Had no oil pressure on the dash. So i installed a aftermarket gauge.It works but it reads at about 15 when its running. Does this sound right? Also the gauge takes forever to go back to 0 after the cars shut off. Could i have a bad sender?

Okay thank you i can work from there!

Hate to bother you. Although the picture was helpful, if you have time can you post actual measurements of that diff plate? Also do the spacers toward the front of the diff get tightened down or do they stay loose? Thank you!

Thanks! im one for the motto if it works it isn't stupid.

So whens the next run??? Ill be ready!

Just ordered some lift pieces from SJR. I only ordered the strut pieces as i can build the rest.

Until i order my 4'' lift i decided to make it Rwd. Who cares if i blow up the push button anyway. I need to hunt for a cheap duel range. Here are some wide 27'' tires stuffed under with no lift. Its not even drivable like this they rub soooooo bad. I put some cool smaller tires on for sliding around.

Earlier this winter i wrecked my beloved 84 gl wagon Oliver. Some day Ill fix him. But for now i borrowed its 6 lug hubs and drums. I had no problems mounting them on the ea82. I did have to reset one drum self adjuster but the other slid on fine. I measured and compared them side by side and they seemed identical.
