  8. I saw this a a good guys car show and it got the wheels turning..has anyone flush mounted their front & back windows...
  9. ahh i see another frame off goin on..you will be glad you did it... im at the end of mine and super happy i got the hood back on and some what lined up...as the snow slows down...
  10. installed my side marker lights..... Now i have a few wireing issues to fix!!!
  11. yep thats where i got mine from..no prob
  12. i got the valve from cpp and it fit great us like the original one
  13. cool..thats what I thought..jus had to check wit others who know these cars
  14. so Im putting my car back together..reinstalling the wireing for the front and i have what I think are 2 wires comming off the headlights(black)...are these for grounding and if so then should they jus be ground to the body or the battery..or does it matter???
  15. hell yeah that would be very helpful..but it wasnt that hard to flip it over....cant wait to drive her..man im getting anxious!!!
  16. thanks for that link..i actually called the hellwig people and talked to them and yes i do have it on up side down..gotta get back under there and flip it over.....thanks again. I jus sold another hellwig bar to a friend for his Monte yesterday....lol
  17. up side down? how can you tell if its up side down or not???
  18. yeah the install wasnt as hard as I first thought..took the shock..springs and wheels..and didnt even have to get under the car to drill the other hole needed. and on the bracket theres a 3rd hole for the exaust to hang and they provide screws for it too..super cool..yeah gotta love summit for quick shipping!!! while I was under there i was lookin at where the other bars mounted and i can se how that location would flex under hard cornering. cant wait to get the car totally back together so I can drive it. The instructions said to use the outter most hole till I get used to how it drives..I guess thats the least firm setting..... which hole do you run?? and how far or high up did you do you have the end links set..there was no reccomendation for that so I set them at 2 inches..they clear everything there but i wasnt sure?!?!?!? Ill call em to see when your commission check is comming... heres how she sits now.....
  19. got the front and rear sway bars in yesterday...cant wait to see how this thing drives now
