skyblue Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 I hear ya........I haven't done anything major since Canby... .....too much fun driving her to put her on stands again......need that steering gear done baaaaad.... My shit was all over the road on that last fun run....even with the new idler bushing..... I need to set myself some big goals before Canby!! :thumbup: ZX struts??, New Diff??, KA?? :rofl: ......now that's wishful thinking.... Ooooh KA with dual side drafts would be sick!!! But maybe zx struts would be easier. Do u still want those 510 struts I have? I can drop them off at the shop mañana if you'd like. Quote Link to comment

Busta Nut Posted December 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Had a couple hours to kill last night so 5Teezy got some love........ Decided on tackling the left rear door handle.............this guy was bondo happy.....fortunate for me I guess. Here is what it looks like...... ....from the inside.... .....peeled the mesh away.... You can see a small crack wear the bondo is separating from the metal......I gave a few firm wacks with a 1lb dead blow.... ..........it exposed a small outline for me......then I started chipping away with a chisel.......
