Yes sir,Im tired of working on it :looser:

I think im going to go shove it up against the wall and roll the cummins back into the shop.I got all my a/c stuff coming friday so i can have the a/c working.I need to swap out the crank sensor,I think its bad cause the alt. wont charge.Just get all the stuff finished up on it so i can use it:awesomework: then I should be able to find some motivation to work on the zuk...I hope.

progress

Back on the zuk again.I found all my old alt. brackets I had built many moons ago when I first put this motor in a zuk.

Ford put the alt. down low.I put the gm 140 amp unit up nice and high.

I decided to use a gm p/s pump,im goping with the remote res. version.I dont like building brackets like these much shits a pain in the arse!

I used 3/16" plate for the main piece and the tabs and an old chev alt bracket I had laying around.

This fits good and evan lines up the pulley nice lol but shes kinda flexy..cant be having that.So I heated up a piece of 1/2" round rod and welded that to it...now shes very ridgid and over killed lol

 

[rockmike]

ready for some differant shocks now

A while back I decided to sell the Rncho coilovers and spend the big bucks and go with the ORI st's 16"

which forsed me to have to redo my front shock mounts.A member here gave me the this idea...cant remember who? but thanks!!

what I built for the rancho's

The ori's have a much bigger mounting eye and needs a wider pocket to fit.Plus I need to have 22 1/2"s from eye to eye for the ori's and I have 23 1/2"s now.

1" higher

start of the tabs to box it in.

made a lil press brake

So I could bend the tabs to match the contour of the piece.

Looks like this now

ehh itll work

 

[rockmike]

Built a cool lil propane vaporizer mount last night.

 

[monstaru]

man, you have some tools.....geez.thats some nice work .cheers, brain

 

[LIKES2CRAWL]

Looking good Mike. Well the 33's finaly took a **** on me after 9 years of owning them. Think the cords are letting go and caused a out-of-round tire that shakes the **** out of everything.

 

[NotSoPC]

That sucks:booo: I had a tire do that to me about two days before it blew.

I went out to the driveway tuesday and it had split open between the lugs, I think if I would have drove it one more time it would have blown.

Scored a freebie from a buddy so should tie me over for while.
