Went ahead and painted the rear muffler section black. Turned out really nice. The exhaust is not bolt down. Just hanging up there by the rubber hangers. Fitment looks great so far.

Didn't have alot of time this month to work on her. Been busy. But I did work on her this past week /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Replacing the valve cover gasket. It was leaking. The engine looks clean for the miles. Finally finished replacing the exhaust manifold studs. Got most of the turbo back on. Going to pull the oil pan and but a new one on. So I had to take the front transfer case off. Went ahead and cleaned it up and painted it. Still have a ton of work to do.

Front diff.

Sorry Bob that is the Transfer case, the front diff is in the transmission The car is coming along very nicely keep posting the pics.

Any updates? More pics of how you mounted the brake lines on the coilovers please.

 

Very nice thread on your build up, I will be doing the same to mine but keeping it 100% stock.

Hey Bob is that a bolt I see in the manifold instead of a stud thought that was bad....

 

[AnotherNewb]

What did you use to clean the t-case so well before you painted it?

 

[bobdole]

That bolt is not staying there /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Got some Hella horns in today. They are loud.
