Project' Rabid Goat

Have fun with the Varishock install, complete headache....

Yeah, I have a feeling about that. I am telling myself "only two beer's, only two beer's"

4 hours under the Goat tonight. Got the old shocks out, installed the Vari-shocks. I had to drop both lower control arms, remove the spring, grind off the welded on nut for the old lower shock mount. I bolted up the top of the new shocks, re-installed the springs, reset the lower control arms. I also temporarily installed the new tall spindles,waiting on new lower ball joint dust boots. I also installed the front braided brake lines.

Ok, I think I nailed the stance. Today she gets new tie rods, and the front brake upgrade gets completed.

The dreaded always a pain in the a** hideaway headlight misalignment. You shold look into doing the electric conversion for the moving parts.

It has the electric conversion on it. It just needs some tweaking.

[Slammd-Gto]

Does anyone sell a kit for the electric conversion?
I remember reading about someone using miata actuators but that's all I've found.

That looks amazing!

Cool banner. I'm still waiting for mine from Larry. I think he sent you my banner instead. LOL.

To get to this point was truly a PITA!!! Of course, I had some weird situation that Tobin @ Kore 3 had only seen one other time, and that was about 5-6 years ago. I can't say enough good about Tobin, he sure knows his stuff!!!

My schedule is still somewhat intact. Hopefully have it on the ground, and driving by Saturday.

[Carl @ Chassisworks]

Good talking to you this afternoon, Russell. Thanks for the call!

[69*Goat]

Shake down run this past Saturday. I need to rectify a couple of issues, but it went very well.

Car looked good Russell. What show did you go to?

Did the show move from the old Kroger location?
