I put new ball joints on my steering members yesterday

I did the string and tape measure method with the front end up in the air

and found center on the steering box first

I Have eibach springs with bilstein sports

its is adjusted to 1/8 inch tow out

and it still pulls right

I would like to learn how to do this myself, but don't know where to go from here

thanks,

chet

I have a 71' 2002

my dad has a 70' 911T

we stripped the paint ourselves and I seem to remember it having galvanization. either way I guess

try to look out for the head light buckets in addition to the battery trays and spare tire well.

and everyone is correct on parts

there are map holders that bolt into the door panels that sell for well over $1000 a pair

and recaro seats are going to be at least 2500 if you are lucky

we have seen them for as much as $10,000

a blast to drive

beautiful to listen to

good luck finding one you like

the car pictured is the current state of our 911, it looks darker in person

I had a 914 as well, it was a blast but is missing that oomph when you punch it, and it doesn't have the sound of a 911

if its the intake, the bolts on the bottom of the intakes on the head are difficult to get to

cut an open ended wrench in half (12 mm I think)

and shave down the outside of the crescent section of the wrench to fit around the nut

takes some time

have fun!

Bill clinton! more like John Bobbit

thanks for the pictures, I think that will be a great help

I just got my Ireland exhaust in

Im very happy with it

I want to fabricate my own tip to exit in the centerish section of the rear valance.

I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of ones they had made.

thanks,

chet

I have sports with eibach pro kit springs and I am very happy with the ride.

And it is my daily driver.

But I have driven the similar spring with HDs and it was much softer, but not as fun to drive

chet

nice! perfect

thank you so much

that does help for decreasing weight and increasing strength on the frame rails

what I am looking for is like a gusset plate, or a piece of box tubing that would go inside the engine compartment

and would join the firewall, the frame rail, and the rear section of the engine compartment wall.

if anyone has done this and has pics I would love to see them.

thanks,

chet

p.s.

if anyone has any other body strengthening mod pictures I would love to see them, thanks again

Draco and I are thinking of reinforcing our front frame rails.

we were thinking of using some stout rectangular tubing welded between the firewall, frame rail, and wall in the engine compartment.

does anyone have any pictures of cars with this mod.

thanks,

I have Eibach Pro Kit springs (lowered 1.5") with Bilstein Sports. Does anyone have pictures of this setup with minilite style wheels 14" and 15"? I am trying to decide which to go with, I realize that 15s are earier to find tires for but dont know if I want to go that big. any ride difference between the two.

thanks,

chet

that must be one big silo

the couple pictured is one of 43 phaetons sold

cool factory

believe it or not the seals came out just fine

I was surprised as well

wanted to get some utilitarian use out of it before the bodywork

chet

I know I am way down the line

I am interested in the headers

thanks

That is a log that my buddy and I brought up from the beach to make a backyard bar

if you want to go nuts on money becker makes one that is over 1000

if not there is one on crutchfield's website that I have heard good things about for about 250 I think

http://www.crutchfield.com/app/product/search/searchresults.aspx?us=2&SearchTab=Shop&search=classic+car+radio&x=0&y=0

I bypassed my radio all together and ran an ipod straight to an amp

cheap! and lots of room for gauges

have fun,

chet

(nt)

thanks guys

that helps a lot

I only need one corner adjusted

I can imagine how frustrating it must be to do the whole hood

I like that silver car in the how to

thanks again,

chet

I tried to adjust the hood gap with the angled plate on the driver's side that is bolted to the hood

I figured that the cam that closes the hood would push down harder and make close all the way like the passenger side

it didnt

does anyone have any tips on this

thanks,

chet

is anyone organizing a drive around the time of the San Francisco show?

I will be up in SF from tuesday(12) to saturday(16) if anyone wants to take a spin up PCH

I just put sports in my car

the rebound to full height was about 7-10 seconds

I think yours sound like they would be much easier to install

on the front at least

but in my one car, one shock set replace experience, that sounds like they are blown

chet

how much for the bumpers?

any extra gauges on the interior?
