WOW, looks like you've got a lot going on for you Monte. So far, looks good!!

But I would have painted the dog bones before putting the poly bushings in....

I'm just worried because I was planning on ordering a ZZP STB soon and don't want to run into the same problem.. haha.
I don't yet, on the car at least, it wouldn't rock it enough, it would actually move it in the way. I did get it to fit, it did require some work and dremeling and it will need to be re-powdercoated..



I'm still going to work on it a bit and make it look a little bit more clean, but it does the job and it handles quite a bit better

Thanks! I wanted to, but I'm worried about ruining the paint when I press the bushings back in, they weren't the easiest to press in lol I'll just tape them off really, really well

all I wanted to do today, wired in a new switch and indicator led



Then it got rediculously hot.

In the next couple of days I hope to run the rest of the wire for that switch, remove my underglow, remove my 'reverse light underglow' and pull the rear bumper and start to undercoat there and down my exhaust path.

Starting to undercoat the Monte..





The rest will be done when it goes up on the lift so I can grind down on the very little surface rust there is and convert it then undercoat it.

Exhaust is getting done on Tuesday super excited..

Keith, I don't know what that is, check facebook tho ahha

Nice! What products are you using for the undercoating, if you don't mind me asking?

I wish Por15 wasn't so pricey! That will probably be what I'll use this winter.
