I mostly work on meat & potatoes, powertrain & drivetrain….try to learn those guy’s the proper ways to perform repairs.

E-one seems like they either sold out or bought out someone…we have Pierce,Rosenbauer,KME (Keep Mechanix Employeed)

Yeah, it's been 15 years since I worked for Williams. Hella fun job, tho. Big boys playing with big squirt guns, lol.

Had to make a few cuts in the rearward 2-subframe one’s (pictured out on left) … as they were

A little more progress

Somebody has been chasing skirts and not getting any work done. This may be worse than the garage build. Get to work dude.

Twin pump assembly mounted & tested.
Tank is back in with new hoses.
Subframe assembly is back in.
In the process of cleaning up & servicing the 3.3 diff & Quaife unit for installation…gotta drill out stubs for fitment of the DSS axles.
Rear springs dua in this week for the midlinks.
Been playing around with a Chic a bit.
Brakes should be in sometime next week.
I’ll post up some pics by the weekend.
Goal is to have engine on table & assembling all components back to it.
Bolting up trans/converter & assembling the twice turbo’s after the Labor Day get together

Not as much wrench time as I’d like, but making some progress
