Got a whole lot of nothing accomplished for the most part, burned the sh*t out of finger getting the shift boot finished and mounted. But other than that seemed like the hooks and visor holes were not right in the headliner, and the real kicker is the rust on the seat mounts as well as the guy that redid the seats put the one side of the bracket on back words. Any ideas on how to get that apart? Seems there is a safety I need to undo to get the one side of the track all the way out to switch them around, the brackets were painted when he put the seats together. Guess I will be POR15'ing the seat brackets

Yesterday i installed KYB's all around and UMI rear lower control arms and rear sway bar and a UMI swaybar up front and greased the whole car. I attempted to put the rear upper control arms in but i was having no luck getting the top bolts out. I couldnt for the life of me get any type of wrench or socket onto the nut. Anyone have any tricks for that?
 
I didn’t get to make it home as early as I wanted today. That aside I was able to Drop the tank, swap the sender, and plumb fuel system. Then I did a thing... if my wife sees what I did to something I just paid $1300 for she would kill me...

Pulled it outside under is own power. Didnt do any more tonight, I'll finish it up and get tags tomorrow.

Stance seems about right for a drag car. Thinking new front springs may be in order. It's a tad low in the front....
