heirfaus Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 So a few of you guys know me, but most of you don't. I have spent most of my time on the realm. I thought, as I am meeting more of you guys from ratsun I should become a little more active on the forum closer to home and to the local 510 guys.:) I thought I would start by posting my latest project. I am finishing up my suspension and I removed my rear crossmember to install Byron510's camber/toe brackets, 4" exhaust hole, and Noltec rear sub-frame bushings. Already installed was Suby CLSD, poly diff mount, Matt's CV adapters and EMPI CV's, Top Motoring single adjustable rear coilovers, and 200sx rear disk. Quote Link to comment

heirfaus Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) After removal I had it blasted and then it was off to Lukes in Dallas, OR to help with some welding skills. Here's a shot of Luke lining up when we were making the cuts for the brakcets to sit in. Edited October 11, 2008 by heirfaus Quote Link to comment

heirfaus Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Originally I used a 4" hole saw and the rear side came out perfect the front was a bit more trouble with the odd angles and it got a little f'ed up. Here's Luke with the torch doing a little fine tuning. Quote Link to comment

heirfaus Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 So fresh and so clean, clean:p Quote Link to comment
heirfaus Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Byron's brackets are not designed to be used with the hard stuff so it's out with the poly in with the old. I bought the last 3 factory bushings. They aren't NLA yet, but they are on backorder so I had to order a fourth from Napa and he even had to get one across the country. Quote Link to comment
heirfaus Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 I got some Noltec subframe bushings to go in with the install. I also bought some new stoppers to go under them. All from Datsport. Quote Link to comment
