Was hoping to get a bunch done over the Thanksgiving break, but of course today is the first day it decides to rain! Thankfully I had some indoor stuff to work on, so after running a few Tgive related errands, I started on the e30. First up was to finish the front suspension. Literally only got one picture, and it's after I got one of the struts into the housing.
The rest is obvious of course... springs, top hats, and strut mounts installed. Mounted the front struts, lower control arms, brake calipers etc. Need to find the steering rack hardware to mount it to the subframe, but plan on doing the tie rods first. As it got darker I decided to swap out the steering linkage guibo with an Ireland Engineering poly unit. And that was basically the day!
Still plan on making some big headway through Sunday, including converting the AC over to 134a (been dreading this), brake booster, master cylinder, clutch master cylinder, accelerator/brake/clutch pedal bushings, modify the firewall to fit the steering linkage correctly, reinstall the underbody shields and shift carrier, and hopefully get the motor dropped into the bay!
