Things are starting to get close now. The front end is back together, except for the sway bar. The transmission should be ready to test, except for the shifter adjustment. A couple lessons learned:
– The steering linkage drops down through the control arm, not up.
– The Energy Suspension sway bar frame bushings have to be slit before installation
The new brake rotors are on, all the ball joints have boots, and the axles are installed. Once the sway bar goes in to place, the exhaust needs to be reconnected, and the car can come back down to the ground.
Left to do:
- Swap coil
- New plugs & wires
- Adjust shifter and install boogers
- Re-attach turbo plumbing
- Get a battery
- Connect the electrical to the transmission
- Put new injectors in
- Run vacuum line to the BOV
- Reconnect the PDC and secure it
- Secure some misc. wires that are banging around the engine
- Secure the brake line bracket on the right side
