Suspension bits are cut up and modified (to accept 1 way adjustable coil-overs, and 4 way adjustable brackets for sway bars front and back). They are off to powder-coat!!! I forgot to snap photos after mods, but will post pretty pics of them all dressed up ready for install.

Note: current bottleneck is... waiting for bodywork to begin. (rust repair, fender flairs, and roll cage install)

next bottleneck will definitely be paint! :0

next up... Engine build!

You're moving right along. Faster then some other builds that's being talked about right now.

Also (can’t believe I almost forgot)...

My OEM hood is pretty beat up in the front. I estimate about 800 bucks labor to bang her straight. Soooooooo...

Webbies. :yum: I remember playing with them years ago. PITA to set up if you don't have a manometer.

Shimming the 3.35 diff with Quaife. Fun

The other (spare) 3.55 diff is a spool (spool=welded and cheap diff) for hooning and maybe backup track use if I need a shorter gear for some reason)

I don’t remember which one came from the 240 and which from the diesel maxima. I’m guessing the taller gear came out of the diesel? Don’t recall.

Dammit!!!!

Never easy. So time to shim the spindle.
