I like the progress on this, great work Jon!!
most if not all the snow is gone in my area now but from that storm my area got 15" and some of the areas in the western part of the state got pretty close to 3' of snow.

after the storm it warmed up nicely and it all melted away. last winter we got the entire season's worth of snowfall in one month.


Jon keep up the work and less bunny killing. :lol:

They don't fit anything I drive anymore... My new DD is the one that spins all 4 wheels. Poor ole red was rusted beyond saving so its on its death bed... soon to be gutted and removed. They did only have my winter tires on them.

Well apparently the postal bitch never left me a notice saying there was a package at the post office for me, so the rings have been sitting there since the 9th... I will be headed there this afternoon to rip them a new one. This is the third time this bitch as screwed me over with packages and notices. I'm going to find out the process of filing a complaint to the postal service for her performance.

Robert isn't very good with computers, so here are his header pics, along with pics of his new (used) jackshaft and coolant/washer fluid tank courtesy of yours truly! :)

DAMN, now thats a jackshaft! wtf was the one that was on here robert? Its an aluminum housing with like a 1/8th" thick bracket that held it to the engine...

Also Bret will this work on a car with the older 89 rear engine mount?

IIRC that jack shaft will not fit the old rear engine mount bracket design. It can be made to work with a custom engine mount bracket though.

Now that i think about it.Many years ago it broke and it was replaced.They told me it was all from gm.lol
The jack shaft broke and they replaced a lot of things.
My guess cheap aftermarket?
Well you have one from alex and one from brett.lol
