fivetenguy Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Busta, your car is looking sweeeet! My car has felt a little swirmish and it doesn't handle the way it should. Yesterday i started to install the steering box brace and it occured to me to check the bolts on the steering box. Sure enough they were a little loose. Checked the idler arm bolts and those were loose, just not as much as the steering box. After installing the steerimg box brace my alignment looks way off by eye balling it. The issue is that bith my old school alignment shops are not answering the phone and i only have today and Friday afternoon to do the alignment. I need to make some phone calls and see wjo can squeeze me in! Quote Link to comment

Took mine out this morning to see how it feels....... ......still too soft in the rear......gonna swap the heavier springs in...and align this baby....... Too bad you're not closer......I'd take care of ya..... Does Gino have an aligner?? Quote Link to comment
fivetenguy Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Thanks Busta. That would have been awesome. Certainly better when a datsun guy does the alignment because you know exactly what specs the car needs. All other alignment shops just go by what the book or pc says. I'm not sure if Gino has an aligner. I never thought of asking him. 1 Quote Link to comment
