Started around 8-8:30 and had it on the floor about two so yeah pretty much. Took another hour moving it from that spot to the gravel outside. That was ugly! Otherwise, it was a cakewalk and kind of felt like I was back in a body shop for a little while. It will probably take me that long to do the trans swap, too. Luckily DD still drives fine, most folks wouldn't even notice probably.

You know how to get to the back most (PITA) bolt, right? With 2 feet of extensions, lol.

Yepper I saw that on a write-up here. It takes couple feet for those upper DP bolts too. I have half inch drive stuff for that, so zip zip! Only thing that got messed up was a fuel line that puked the little inside clamp. No matter, not using that. Of course one resonator bolt snapped! The oil still dripping from the air intake bothers me a little, but that engine will probably get upper-end inspected and modded before seeing action again.

Clean vs dirty finished it used the white wax. Meh was a pain in the ass no after pics cause I'm lazy. Going to a meet tonight probably not taking my car. Gonna ride along in my buddy's slammed 91 s10

Looks good. Invest in a DA and you don't have to work as hard.

Found some screws in the garage and put my filler plate on

fixed my e brake, and filled the tank up.

turns out the hard cable where it meets the knuckle broke free and the cable inside failed to hold tension. was able to hose clamp the cable tube back tot he knuckle, e brake never felt better.

I need to fix mine it hasn't worked since I bought the car

when mine let go it pinged at the pedal, so i started there, pulled the carpet back, worked the pedal, it still took cable and it went back, so off to d/s back wheel, its all working but not tight, so off to pass side found that tube broke free, so the pass side had zero pull on the cable. witch directly affected the pull on the driver side.

clamped the cable tube to the knuckle and its as good as new feeling. how long it will last? idk lol i cant find a diagram of the cable hook up yet to see whats missing.
