Rear end refresher..... :)


Recommended Posts

So after putting it off for too long, I decided it was time to freshen up the rear sub-frame and rear suspension pieces. I've got to tell you, it wasnt as easy as it looks, but its easy enough with the right tools. I would venture to say that, the rear end on this 39 year old car has never been touched.

On a side note, what size are those pesky cv nuts and drive shaft nuts. They're not 16 and just under 17, talk about a pain. Im thinking I'll have to replace all of those hex head bolts and nuts with something a little more common.

Thanks to my boy who gave up his sunday to spend the day in the garage with dad.

I hope to have her finished before Brisbane, but who knows Here is a few pics...enjoy.

If you don't drive it hard, give it to someone who will!

Great work!

I have some rear end work in my future too - clean/reseal the diff and replace the subframe bushes to polys.

I've been dragging my feet and will do it in conjunction with my 5-spd. swap.

Cheers!
