well, we are in between "never" and "5 years". LOL

I drove it a little and took the whole rig to the shop. I don't see how he made it with the brakes the way they were. the RF wheel cylinder was leaking so the fronts were not doing anything at all.

the current stage of improvements will be complete once we find a way to mount the PS pump, get the hydroboost pushrod lengthened safely, and run hoses for it all.

maybe in another 2 years we will swap the rear end. assuming it doesn't have 6.14:1 gears like the "red blur" does. LOL
