Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread

Well I got some pictures of the frame tonight




and here is the crossmember that I'm going to remove because of the large crack in the top of it and the mutilated bottom (someone tried to weld it together) I'm going to go with an ECE extreme drop crossmember.



And then I got the axle stripped down to pretty much the bare housing (diff and gears still inside) I also got the upper and lower a-arms torn apart. I was hoping to get to sandblasting all of this, but one of the ball joints was being a royal PIA and didn't have time.



I took off all the drum brake stuff cause I'm going with LT1 camaro brakes. I ordered the backing brackets already. I'm going to do some powder coating for a guy in trade for his calipers.

I also need to get on ordering some POR-15 so I can start painting the frame and other suspension component.
