Nice bike but to me those are just death traps. Why I like trucks if that pirus want to pull out let them go I won't feel it as we hit

Having access to a mill is very nice but I only get to use it once in awhile at work when the setup guys ain't using it. Can't tell you how much it has been clocked I forgot to get a angle finder and see what it was before and after. Once I get one ill drop it to where it was stock and then raise it back to its new spot and post up what degrees it was at.

Yea I've been getting some time in on it lately. Sorry to hear your ankle still holding you up but once you get moving around again you'll start pumping some work out I'm sure. The last update was only half of what I got done didnt do much since I last posted the t case and haven't had a chance to finish the last of my progress pics

Ok after I got done the t case I moved on to the front axle needed to take it out as my buddy wanted to buy it so I got it out and sold it to him then put my Dana 60 in for the first time. Was a real b**** dragging the axle under it myself with one whole knuckle out missing couldn't roll it under like I did the 44.

Out with the Dana 44

And now for the little progress since then. I finally got my IC top mounts welded felt brave enough to weld them with the TIG gun. Came out ok so I finished my top mounts on the radiator support. I used 2 old rubber bushings off my 01 cummins radiator when i replaced it last month i knew i held onto the bushings for a reason they fit in the tabs I rewelded to the IC perfect and will help vibration.

Top mounts on core support round stock drilled and tapped

Started on my radiator install just started mocking it up then had to go start tearing apart a box truck I just got taking it off the frame and using the body as storage so it will be acouple days for more progress on the crew. Should have the rear axle sold this weekend still looking for a new axle to replace it just finding the right deal will decide what axle ill be using its between 3 axles whatever I find first for the right price will be what I run.

Yea that's my 91 Rx 7 nothing special need to out the transmission in so I can sell it but to many projects going on right now already they are good cars great handling on the road 50/50 weight distribution. Used to have a 89 turbo II RX 7 black outside black leather interior car was wicked fast with everything I did to it gotta love them rotary engines. If I still had it I was thinking about a ls1 swap maybe the red one will get the swap some day if I get around to it.
