Naw, doesn't feel bad at all.  My only prob is the stinkin lack of shocks...



Ok, update as of tonite.  We put in the toyota rear and added the welded 4:30's, and pulled the front axle apart and put the 4:30 3rd in there... got all THREE of the crossmembers done :woohoo: the goal for tomorrow is to get the front and rear driveshafts done, replace the rear shoes, and adapt the slave cylinder.  I have to have this thing done by tomorrow afternoon cuz it's GOIN to Hollister :eyebrow:

I was wondering who would see that first :greengrin: :clap2: You're right, my friend's dad was sprayin it with something in an aerosol can... it did get pretty hot up there though :ack:


Oh yeah, I also learned how important it is that I either cut out my firewall, hammer it in, or move my axle.  AND add bumpstops :disturbed:

I didn't see the mist either, figured they just threw some gas on it and lit it up.

no way.  I've seen lots of different kinds of flame; look at it, it's burning behind the ramp, and billowing over the tire.  the only way gas would do that is the initial flash, after that, you just have burning fluid.  That is a well-atomized flame :yesnod:

:yupyup: Duffil you ROCK! That driveshaft works fine.  I drove the Migo tonight.  Finally got to workin on it around 8, got the new driveshaft in and drove it... kinda felt a lil wierd.  So I look down and sure enough, the CV rubs on the floor.. So I have to bend some of the floor up so it doesn't rub... and I have to shorten the front driveshaft.  :greengrin:
