Re: 84 4Runner Buildup - 40's Rock!

Here's how I aligned it at home.  Clamped 2 pieces of 1"x1" to the brake rotors and marked off a line at 40".  Had it towed in 3/16".  Took it to my friend's shop to have it aligned and it was towed out 1/10 of a degree.  Not bad for home alignment.





I bought some -6 an plugs to try and plug the hydro lines coming from the PS box.  Found out that since the lines have a swivel connection, they leak even with plugs in them.  They need to be tightened against a solid fitting to get the swivel to stop leaking.  I needed to drive the 4Runner over to my dad's house to do the work on it since he's got a welder.  Oh well, it was a good idea.



So I had to hook up the ram and fill/bleed the system to drive it 3 miles.  Didn't know what to do with the ram so I wire/zip tied it to the front spring hanger  :D




Here's what the 3/4" heim and misalignment  spacers / safety washer look like installed.
