Saw this nice Elco parked outside the local Home Hardware the other day.

.1mm = .004" 4 thousandths of an inch is the width of 1 to 2 human hairs or the thickness of a piece of printing paper. Those will work just fine. If you find them hard to press in when the time comes, deburring the holes in the rotors or sanding the knurling on the studs a bit should be enough...

This should be the first year I get to cash in on the "dad tax" at Halloween. 😆

Called U-Haul and told them I was going to tow my Ranger with a buddy's Liberty and they said no; so I hung up and called back and told them I was towing a Civic instead. 🤣

No worries! I'm honestly surprised that he never ended up selling those plates, I think that if he made them drilled for a bunch of different patterns they would sell quite quickly.

81cutlass is the one that was doing what you described. It's all in this thread here; https://gbodyforum.com/threads/zr2-s10-8-6-rear-in-a-g-body-build.63106/

DSPbuilt is right, soaking the wrap makes it a little easier to work with. It still sheds a bit but not as bad and it wraps tighter.

The Hellwig kit will give you more room to fit an exhaust under the car and the Trick Chassis kit comes with the weld in control arm braces, but your UMI stage 4 kit comes with their bolt in braces. From what I've read our cars like to rip the rear control arm mounts off under hard acceleration...

I think g0thiac was elected to take care of g body of the month?

Didn't you say in your other thread that you had a budget of $2500 to swap a motor in your car? You've spent $1000 on a donor vehicle, hopefully you can sell items off of it to recoup costs, but now you've torn the engine down and are rebuilding it. I think you've just eaten your entire budget...

Was it anything like this crap? https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/prime-energy-drink-recall-canada-1.6904892

I've never see a crank support before, at what boost/power level do you start to need crank support?

How old are the springs on your car? If they're original putting some factory replacement springs in will probably get you the 1" of lift you're looking for.

I think you should look at some of the threads on here where guys have done LS swaps.I don't know what is wrong with your current drivetrain, but if you just want to drive it again and have a budget of $2500 I would reconsider the LS swap. LS swaps always end up costing more than you expect...

It's been a while since I installed my body bushings but they look right. The square hole in the frame is to give you space to move the core support in order to align your body panels correctly.

This is the first time in over 15 years that negotiations between the union and the company haven't gone to a strike vote. With this new agreement we have lost nothing and gained a bunch of good benefits, I see no reason to vote against it. 20 paid days off a year on top of 3 weeks vacation and...
