mykingcrab Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 (edited) I just completed some work on "ROXY" There is alot of blahblah, with a slideshow link for dessert. First on my list was to cut apart my "NOT SJR" strut towers,that I purchased used for $20.00 from DRKRAZY,they came to him as part or another companys lift kit that he put on his "PROJECT CHEAP." The camber was 3.2deg(+) on the left,and 2.8deg(+) on the right.(no jig)?hmmmmmm. anyway,I also cut some 2x2 angle(Thnx COBCOB),to begin to build blocks into a subframe. this piece in the pics made a 100% differance in rigidity. it was getting sloppy and squeeky.I plan on going 1.5" tube from bumper to bumper pretty soon/6-8 mo. next was to replace the rear RX saggy/uneven springs with wagon springs. the strange thing is,that there was no visual differance,both on damage or height,or diameter. l didnt mic it but they looked identical. Once on the car.........wow,night/day difference. obviously different Next,I replaced the struts in march when i lifted, but chose to replace those $20.00 e/bay new. but probably (20years in a warehouse)gabriels. caacaaahh. went with monroes,even though l wanted kyb's, but they work!!!! Bottom line??????????? it runs great,and drives ***************ennnnnnnnn:grin: Then COBCOB correctly installed all new timing set belts idler sprocket,both tensioners. she's happy. next is 8 point cage,$159.99 + shipping (the first step in bumper to bumper tube frame) That and some rivited aluminum pannels is the ultimate rust repair. Frame around it, cut out the rust, here are the pics, let it lap 2x's to insure that they all load on the slide show. thnx.:cool: http://s251.photobucket.com/albums/gg314/MYKINGCRAB/?action=view¤t=0e9937bf.pbw Edited September 30, 2008 by mykingcrab TELL THAT THERE ARE PICS.
