Just read the instructions well and take your time and youll be fine. Theres a diagram on the instructions on how to safety wire (which way ..ect)..Yes they are the stock drum spindals..depending on if you have drum or disc spindals depends on the hardware you use to bolt the caliper adapter plate to it. If you have any questions feel free to ask me.

ok. I have the stock drum brakes on the car right now. and I'll need to contact frank to see if he can send me some safety wire that usually comes with his kits.

Franks the man.

Speaking on Frank..the rear will be here today. Also anyone know any good sites or links to an exploded view of the front end..like down to the nut and bolt..? Torque specs for the front end also..? Im almost ready to start putting it together but I want to get all my info together first. Thanks Steven

well its here and I finally got to open up the box and work on it some...not the best pictures but they will do for now..The rear was ordered with no finish as me and my dad said we would just por-15 it in the same black that we did the front frame. We got it all out, set it up and did the first two steps of the process..degrease, then rinse with water, metal ready, then rinse with water again...let dry...open up the can of por-15 and its solid as a rock..so we order more paint today and hopefully well have it by the weekend. We should have what we need after its painted to put the rear all together as a rolling assembly.

As for the front frame when we had the powder coater do the front arm and other little things we didnt think about the ball joints and sure enough they where toast. So we ordered new upper and lower ball joints and they should be here by friday also. We also ordered the AIM manual and the alingment shims. Hopefully the sub frame can be a rolling assembly also soon. Anyone care to chime in on if I have the steering arms mounted correctly? I believe they are to face twords the rear of the car...


Onto the pictures...

OHHHH AAHHHH




sanded and ready for some paint
