Did a little homework and the coils are 8k and 10k spring rates. So definetly on the soft side. I will cut the holes for the UCA this weekend and do some cleaning in the suspension then off to get it aligned.

it just sucks that you cant side creep a speed bump because the oil pan will bottom out so i have to hit them straight on.

 

keep up the posting.. awesome ride

 

Im making a nice skid plate for the bottom of my lex. I got air, but that one time a wild sewer appears in middle of the road...would rather catch soem air then destroy my pan.

 

let me know what kind of ideas you come up with

 

Amazing progress, keep it up!

 

not mine, but use diamond plate!

 

Yeah I posted that pic on my Facebook. I am curious to know what the front looks like and where did he attach it to.

 

I don't know if is use diamond plate. The little raised diamonds could get caught on something can cause other issues! I'd just use thick Aluminum!

 

i'd pick a nice big 1/4"-3/8" thick piece of delrin

 

I am going to the junkyard this Sunday. I am going to get an oilpan and pickup tube. I am going to shorten the pan yet make it wider to compensate for the volume change. Sorta like the sr20 greddy units

I been dying to try my new welding mask haha

 

ah snap!! make me one so i can weld my diff and be DK

 

What haha^^^

UCA hole is done no more knocking. Looking for body rubber plugs Sunday that come in the older datsuns to cover the holes.
