DROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Thanks for the compliments guys..Its been a long process...
Swapping the K-Member wasnt to bad.
Problems I have encountered so far:

A-Arm brackets had to be bent to fit properly.
Grind down lip on strut to get the sleeve to fit
FR manual steering rack had to be notched so it wouldnt bend due to hitting the k-member
So far out of alignment that the coil-overs hit the brake line bracket so I had to take the front brakes and lines off and block them off until I get it aligned.
I have ran into more problems but cant remember.

Going for a low-budget stocker, huh?

Looks beautiful! I'm thinking '72 Pinto...

Take care,
