Hey guys,
My 5,000 mi drivetrain unit is now ready to go into the car with all the collision damage professionally repaired at a machine shop and I've transferred my accessories over to the "new" motor, so it's ready to go in as best I can tell.
"bad" engine left, "good" engine right - Before transferring accessories
What I do need are some extra hands to help me maneuver the motor into place and slide the half-shafts into the trans, and could also use help re-hanging the front crash bar. With the crash bar totally removed and out of the way, it should be pretty easy but I just can't do it alone and could really use another pair of eyes.
Located on Breckenridge/Viburnum St in Whittier, CA 90604 in the Candlewood Country Club neighborhood, I plan to be wrenching from 8am to as late as I have to (cut-off is 10pm max daily out of courtesy to neighbors), and if anyone's available in the evenings this week, I might try to see if I can make some progress if I can get a helping hand.
I don't have a front tie rod end popper tool nor do I have a Big F---ing Hammer large enough to pop them free and had to borrow one last time, so the tool to do that would be a huge help.
I provide food and beer and most of the tools, you provide the extra help I need to get it done.
It will be great to get my car back on the road after 6mos.
Unfortunately I had to part with virtually all of my "power" performance parts so aside from the suspension and exterior stuff, I'm stock again
had to sell to pay for the replacement motor, so I'm accepting sponsorship proposals again
But seriously. Hope to see you there, I can really use your help.
The details:
My House - the one with the obvious ass blue ST in the carport.
