        Removed the other shock. Also cut both exhaust pipes past the mufflers.
        Ready to remove springs and carry on!

          That is how you're supposed to jack it.

          Up and down.

            Springs are out. Replacing the rear brake line that goes from the left to right side tomorrow evening.
            Might prep the new gas tank for green paint.

              The green means it's Eco friendly. My buddy is still driving our old 95 GM with over 300k+ on it. We called it "the battle axe". The TOJ seems bad ass.

                It pretty much is. Just a couple minor setbacks, that's all.

                Didn't get into the garage last night, because I wasn't feeling well, but since I'm off tomorrow, I can say out late in the garage and get shit done!!

                Gotta get that brake line in, then start the install of the new shocks and coil springs. Prep the tank for green and maybe solder up the sending unit harness.

                Woot.

                  Waiting to install tank. Very productive day. Installed the rear brake line, and prepped everything for reassembly.
                  Should be all together by Monday evening at the latest.

                      I was just gonna say the tank was on traffic cones lol.
                      And it's got 98+ Frame swap on it apparently from the control arm configuration...

                      Comment


                        It has upper and lower control arms, as you can tell by my premiere MS paint skillz.

                        Installed wagon springs, kyb Gas-A-Just, And reinstalled the calipers.
                        Ready for gas tank mania tomorrow evening. Maybe put the rear sway bar on, drive shaft, and "maybe" start it up this week.
                        Then I can turn it around in the garage and start removing le motor.
                        Woot. Woot.

                          Installed the gas tank tonight.
                          Its probably never coming out again.
                          Going to wire it up and install fuel lines tomorrow.
                          It May move under its own power on Saturday night....

                              Yup. It moves. And is very sick.
