Re: This time I really have gone too far. '92 Mighty Max
I wanted to get an intake plenum done for Vira, but she can't make up her mind on the color scheme she wants for her engine bay. Besides that, no. Thanks though.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

[quote=""Jeff V.""]This is temporary just to get it past the safety inspection. I'm going to grab a set of Montero brakes next time one pops up at the yard.
Otherwise, yes...I'd have replaced the caliper.[/quote]
Good deal

Re: This time I really have gone too far. '92 Mighty Max
Those windows look a lot better jeff. Good work! I see the dash is starting to clean up nicely too. Sorry to hear about the crappy brakes. Don't spend too much time and money on them as we know the 2nd gen monteros fit. Also those saw blades look good enough for now. Actually look better than some of the stock ones. Anyways see if the centering bolts fix that front end issue.
Re: This time I really have gone too far. '92 Mighty Max
I just ordered the centering lugs. I think the only things remaining are a flex section for the downpipe, and an oil change. I'll get the oil change done when I take it in for the inspection.

I see on the phase 1 that fuel tank leaks hasn't been marked off yet.
Any update to the 2 stage repair kit you bought?

The tank seal is curing. I've lost interest in posting updates. Several people here think this truck is a joke, so....fuck em.

Re: This time I really have gone too far. '92 Mighty Max
I suspect the culprit to be someone very close to Jeff in his personal life and on the forums. Might cause the sudden change in heart with this project.

Truck isn't a joke. You're insane for doing it though. But we knew that already!
