Anyone else (still) on stands?
Well a month or 2 back my tires were slit, and i had to but on my y2k wheels and tires. The adapters(or the sudden drop from all four tires being slit) through my alignment way off. So i took this as an oppurtunity to start putting on all of the parts i had laying around.
So far here is what ive gotten done.
-AC Delete
-A.I.R. Delete
-Exhaust manifolds unbollted(have to cut y-pipe to pull them out)
-Spohn Adj Panhard ON
-ProFab LCA's ON
-Rear Sway Bar Endlinks and Bushings In
-WonderBar In
-Front Sway bar bushings In
Heres my to do list now.
-Headers ON
-Egr Delete
-Billet tie rod adjusters ON
-Front sway bar end links
-Eibach Prokit on
-Tokico front struts
Then I can take it to the alignment shop(they'll hate me). Then I can have my duals ran. And she should be driveable after that.

I'm still on stands, since November. My 86 Iroc has become a bigger project than I expected. I don't think I'll have it moving until late August. That's moving, not road ready.
