          Hahaha so true. If you provided the cash for the throne, I provided the cash for the foot rest and servants quarters

              Does anybody have a rear shifter bracket hanging around? #4 in the diagram.


              I think that's about the only thing holding me back from slapping the shifter in, then the driveshaft/differential and seeing if this truck moves under it's own power.

                I've got one somewhere, might be in my trunk. It's used and oily but still is intact.

                    I may have one lying around. I know of one, and where it's at in my garage, but it's for the 02 man!

                    I'll look tonight.

                        Looks like one hell of a freebie! Nice pick up for sure. Can it do 2002 parts? *Smug face here*

                          ETK is cool but penskeparts.com is easy enough for me when emailing blunt lol

                          stole the tires off my s13 240sx (80% federal formoza 205/60-15) and had them mounted on my minty e34 weaves. 15mm spacer up front and 20mm in the back it is looking good and not rubbing so Im happy :) old m systems had 245/45s all around... way too much tire.

                          just needs a drop :(

                              Think i finally found out why my cutoffs were so horrendous, looks like the lens was too close to the bulb/cutoff shield? I must have screwed the lens on too tight to the rest of the setup.

                              Might be a false alarm, when i had them outside of the smileys, just the setup itself, I was appearing to get an awesome cutoff at 15-20feet (couldnt see any farther past cause daytime) but as soon as i put them inside the smileys they seemed to go back to being horrible. My smileys are super clear, with only minor pitting. Could the cutoff be hitting the lower part of the headlight where the like glass wavyness is?



                              Will have to mess with it more tonight.

                                The actual headlight's glass will definitely make the cutoff less colorful, but unless it's fluted right in front of the projector lens itself it shouldn't make much of a difference. My cutoffs looked better outside of the smiley also, the glass and laminX distort the cutoff but there's not a whole lot to do about it...

                                The actual ) of the smiley doesn't spit out light like with the OEM projectors so the fluting down there shouldn't concern you.
