That's awesome. I painted mine ricer red just for SnG's. They are actually ford something or other red. But you can't copy that!!!

:rotflmao

I like the pan. I'm going to plate mine satin nickel but.... that is pretty spiffy.... Might have to knuckle under.

im actually inlove with those covers. they are pretty beefy, and look sharp on the freshly painted diff.
i cant wait to start driving this thing.

the dash is just slapped in for storage, im gonna tape it up today so i dont get it dirty or overspray on it..

i had an accident yesterday, moving the doors.
while holding one of the rear doors into the shop my ******* stupidassyellow lab decided to chase something,
and would you guess what was in his way? MY ******* FEET!
so i decided to let gravity get the best of me and ate the top of the door, knocking a tooth loose.
but the worst part..
the door now needs alot of work, the skin fell right into the rocks.

Damn, that sucks! Those beautiful clean doors.......

At least you didn't loose the tooth, that can be real $$$ to fix.

I thought the same thing only wasn't cleaver enough to come up with lab coat.

LOL

Bondo is cheap. Your time is not however. Boy how I understand this more and more.

Did you have to notch your top spring plates for the radius in the U bolt? Mine didn't set down flush. I was not happy after having already zinc plated and painted them to have to notch them.

I do like that cover...

i used the old stuff, just cleaned em up real good.
they fit just fine, no notching needed.

the u-bolts were in good shape, not rusted or no pitted threads.
i was gonna replace them, but due to lack of a debit card. and noone having them locally, i didnt.

ill get some on order in due time.

had another misshap today. while removing the drag link, using an air hammer with a punch, an employee came into the shop to ask me a question.
the punch slipped and made a divet on the tie rod, so i had to cut it off.
perfect excuse for the Carrick parts.
just need to order a reamer.
