I'm still tracking down an air leak, just installed the water trap and need another elbow, secure everything down in the trunk, patch the holes/tunnel. Also need to move a brake line. Slowly but surely.

Chipping away at the to do list. Started building the new driveshaft tunnel tonight. Will yank the carpet back tomorrow to pop-rivet & panel-bond it into place. I don't want to have to remove the interior to weld the tunnel in.

Man that looks good. Just want to say thanks for replying to my post it has been very helpful. So I ordered everything to redo all my brakes and why I have it up on the lift I’m going to change all fluids and I want to do my suspension at the same time. About how much time did it take for you to do yours and why did you pick that setup? Other than the drive shaft tunnel was there any other major mods you had to do or things you would have done different? Thanks again.

Thanks man. Honestly expect to take 100-150+ hours to do the full install, including the elevel, fixing broken shit along the way, and cleaning/painting.

No, the install honestly goes really smooth just take your time and follow the instructions. If you get frustrated just walk away and come back tomorrow.

You decide on which kit to go with?

If you mount everything to a board like I did, pressure test the plumbing before putting it in the car. Pita chasing leaks with everything bolted down.
