Well I’ve been having issues with the steering so I checked all the bolts, steering shaft is a Jeep, new plastic part at the firewall, but when out driving her, she wants to wander especially when you hit a bump. Thinking maybe my front shocks went bad again? I have global west tubular a arms up front with 77 Olds cutlass spindles and willwood brakes all professionally installed. Seems like a lot of play in the steering wheel maybe the gear box any suggestions much appreciated
are you using the Negative Control Arms designed for that older spindle?

Took some pics of how passenger lines are routed for personal reference. Where I'm pointing is where the "GNX" bushing goes. Header pics are how close 1103hkr headers are to frame stuff, on the passenger side. Driver's side is pretty much the same. Did have to trim driver's side motor mount tho, those pics to come.
Pics uploaded out of order and double, had to repost. I love technology.

If anyone wants some pics of some weird places on these cars, I'll oblige. Keep in mind my car is in no way stock.

Man life has a way of getting in the way of stuff you want to get done. At 6am I got around to polishing wheel 3 of 4. I am ashamed that its been well over a month since I jacked it up and put the new rubber on the front of the car and got then idea it was an ideal time to polish the wheels up. Today I took it off the jackstands and spun it around in the driveway to get to the last wheel.

Made my dump run this morning. I have been having an occasional issue with restarting the car when it is hot. In line at the dump, I ran the battery down low trying to restart it, and had to push start (in reverse because I was facing uphill) to get going again. When shifting into reverse to start it, the shifter shaft broke. Fortunately I have a rag in the cab for checking oil and things, so I used it to cushion the jagged edges and made it home after dumping all of my junk. The break was at a weld I did some months ago. My welding experience is minimal, but I get practice on my shift handle. I took care of that, and added reinforcing to hopefully prevent future breakage.
