New World Datsuns...

Mmk. Got the rest of the frame rail cut off. Now I need to de-rust it.






PS, I take most of my close up shots with my Cell Phone, as it has a decent focus and an excellent flash. Anything too far away I switch to my Canon.

Kipp has your steering box.

Let me know when you get it.

Will do. I am assuming it will make it to one of the Adams, and then to the Eagle one, and then to me...

School me on the A10 box. Quicker ratio? Is it a direct bolt-in?

Yes I think. I never looked into it. I just got a pan for flatkitty, and I got a A10 steering box. But I do believe that's the reason behind it.

Bolt in. Quicker rato. Newer. Better built.
This one was solid.

it does bolt in but the hole in the arm where it connects to the center link needs to be enlarged .

Good to know^^

Got under my car today. Assessed things. There was still some of the old pocket on. So I dropped the sway bar. And then cut off the piece. Made it smoother. I need to clean it now.

I also went to fit one of the rikens. It hit my plumbing collar holding my spring perch. Wow, I guess that is what 7mm difference does. So I either need to weld the spring perch on, or switch to coilovers. Or just get a 5mm spacer for now.

pics later. I'm on my phone.

Weld the perches and sell the collars to me.

...and I still need to get that hub from you.

Yes that. You can see the hub in a picture above. The collars will go up for sale. I'll probably. Take the strut to work and use the spring compressor.

I might have some 8" coil over springs and callers if you are I nterested

Upper spring perch? I never fully understood how that works with stock top hats. I can weld a ring for the coilovers.

you can buy the tops from gabe at t3 . I have never ran them with the stock top at ask Phil he's done it

Nice to have all 4 on the ground again!!! Good job!!!

Ok. Worked on the wagon a bit today. It was sunny when I got off work and I just felt like working on it. Got the holes under the frame rail filled with weld. Then I half welded the T/C pocket on. The front half is quite solidly on, plug welded and the edge is entirely welded. And actually I welded everything accessible from underneath. I went to weld the tab in the engine bay, but somehow I missed some black stuff... I dont remember it, and I thought everything was bare metal... Anyways it contaminated the weld. So grindy grind on that soon.

I also pulled the struts to take to work tomorrow. Damn my electric impact made light work of that.

Glad to see my favorite wagon slowing coming back from the dead.

h;hda;sdlkhfasdfkjhd. I just want to work on my car! Soon. I think I may have finally sourced a piece of trim I have been hunting for for a long time. Yay.

Hopefully Tuesday I will have time to weld my struts.

Yeah hopefully. I like watching this come back to life
