Vinny got new toys finally installed today

[curtis]

Vman911 finally installed his rear bushings and LSD 4 bolt. Came up from ATL and staying with mutual friend. He's been sitting on the stuff for almost a year....Can't say anything I'm getting close to the 2.5 year mark with mine.

I took a quick ride in it and you could definitely tell a difference from the first time he pulled out he called later to say DAMNNNNN.


Oh by the way does anyone know what a 3.307 rear ring and pinion is out of. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif That's the 4 bolt lsd he pulled from a ATL junkyard. We used the ring and pinion that was in the car and the 4 wheel steering housing all we did was replace the diff with the LSD so no worries about mismatches. I saved the 3.307 ring and pinion so hopefully I can find a front ring and pinion to match and go with an evo gear set.


Just posting pictures so he'll have copies. Enjoy.

thanks for the help curtis....

Yes those rear bushings helped out alot...My rear doesn't twist any more when I turn hard. Body stays stright. Rolls real nice.
I haven't launched the new LSD but I'll let you know when I do.. Vinman

Good job Curt! Looks and results sounds good, I can't wait to try out my similar set-up (bushings and LSD 4-bolt).

On a side note, Vman where did you get the smoked COP plate and timing cover? looks slick man, clean bay /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Its actually 1/2 clear lexan. I made it myself. Only 2 ever made by me so far. Mike @ 4Gperformance has the other one. Expensive plastic but looks good.
