One thing off the list - it wasn't the rear caliper leaking, it was the axle shaft seal. Replaced that, everything should be good. Got the engine...
A little more done this weekend. Here's the slave cylinder at the transmission. Too flimsy, material is too thin. But at least, now I have a...
Here are some pictures, as promised yesterday. This is what I did to the set screws, shortened them and put them in with red loctite. About 1/16"...
Forgot to take pics, but got quite a lot done. Pedals are back in. While the gas pedal was out, I finally put a spring in at the pedal....
I got lucky today - the U-joint showed up. Went to the garage and mocked everything up, it's a pretty slick install actually! The set screws are a...
Now I know why I didn't put in the firewall insulation 10 years ago. Still doesn't fit :huh: Has anyone bought one of the mats more recently and...

column not bolted down at the firewall clamp. i can adjust it there so it sits centered towards the box. also, the box is tilted all the way up,...
Here's another pic for your consideration. Put in the column without the steering shaft. This is how it sits in relation to the steering box, with...
A few more odds and ends done today: Swapped the Borgeson hoses around. Made a stiffening plate for the firewall around the brake and clutch...
Here's how the coupler sits, I think this will fit inside the (outer) tube: [IMG] [IMG] And why didn't anyone tell me that I have the...
I'm reconsidering how to connect the steering box to the column. As mentioned above, the coupler is sitting inside the cab and will be touching...
