Looks like some nice mods.

 

Thanks again everyone. Since March (when I could be comfortable that I could begin these projects), I have been busy with the Monte. I need to wrap things up and get to some other projects inside the house soon!

But I appreciate everyone's kind remarks. I love looking at the pics I have and I love having the hood up looking at the real thing. Now, I just need to get to where I can take her out and "test" how these changes/improvements perform. I'm hoping next weekend the brakes will be back together.

 

Are the bushing combo-d together with the shorter dogbones?

 

Looks great!!

 

The WBS kit I bought came with:
- Dog Bone and Rad Mount Poly Bushings
- Solid Rubber Trans and Engine Mount (instead of the hydraulic ones on the car)
- Short dog bones

The dog bones in the pic are stock ones. I currently don't see me using the shorter dog bones unless I lowered the car. I've given some thought to selling the shorter ones.... Just haven't moved on it yet.
I am up in the air on swapping the trans and lower engine mounts with solid rubber ones (mainly because of the work involved). We'll see. Right now, I just want to get my brakes done and the Monte back on the road.

 

Very nice!

 

awesome mods

 

Very nice mods! Everything looks great!


You most definitely should!

 

Thanks again everyone.

Tonight, I tried my first hand at rebuilding a caliper, did not go so well. I just can't push that darn piston in (prior to attempting this, all videos and write ups I've seen indicated using your bare hands to press the thing in, now I see videos where people have used C-Clamps to assist. Hmmm.... Maybe I was not having as big a problem as I thought.

 

Looking good! I have to get my dogbone mounts installed! They're just sitting in the back of my car, I'm wondering if I should put them in the shorter dogbones or keep them in the stock ones, I'm planning to lower later on...

But anyways, keep up the good work!
