Hodgimus-maximus Posted November 7, 2017 Author Share #13 Posted November 7, 2017 So I’m working on getting the old brake stuff off of the car, and my brake line flair nuts will have to be vice gripped off. I was thinking of going back with Nickel Copper lines. Does anybody have a suggestion on a supplier they like/trust?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgimus-maximus Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share #16 Posted December 22, 2017 So I’m almost done putting everything back on the car except I need to change the hand brake cable. Looking under the car it looks like the only way I’ll be able to replace it is if I remove the diff and drive shaft?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patcon Posted December 23, 2017 Share #17 Posted December 23, 2017 I think you can actually work around all of that. Not easy but doable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgimus-maximus Posted December 23, 2017 Author Share #18 Posted December 23, 2017 Hmm seems like I need to invest in some those long needle nose pliers Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel'n Man Posted December 25, 2017 Share #19 Posted December 25, 2017 Chris. Getting ready to purchase coil overs as well. I went ahead and purchased front and rear donor strut assemblies and will rebuild the donor parts. Have you purchased the BC parts yet? I’ll put my originals in storage once I get the donors rebuilt and modified Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgimus-maximus Posted December 25, 2017 Author Share #20 Posted December 25, 2017 Yep I bought them already and they are on the car. I haven’t driven with them yet because I have to redo my brake lines do to having to vice grip my the flairs nuts for my brake lines to install my big brake kit. Here is a pic of my dirty wheels with the big brakes behind themSent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel'n Man Posted December 25, 2017 Share #21 Posted December 25, 2017 We they pre-notched for the front struts? Got any pics from your install?Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgimus-maximus Posted December 25, 2017 Author Share #22 Posted December 25, 2017 All of the weld on threaded tubes are notched. I don’t have any pics since I was trying to get it done as fast as I could but if you look at Hazmatt’s build thread he has pictures.
