Yeah that was cool AF! Looked like there was a little rise and the ass end got a little light, the driver did a good job of saving it.

It's been a while since I worked for GM, but I remember seeing front hub reluctor wheels cracking and rotating on the hub that would cause all sorts of odd abs events and never setting any dtcs. Pull the sensors out and see if you can spin the reluctor wheel with a screwdriver through the hole...

And for those who were around when M stood for music...

I'm a big fan of Gary Numan, I love his signature sound and use of synthesizers. He's 66 but still rocks, I missed him when he was in Phoenix a few months ago but I'm now following his social media and will be sure to catch up next time he's anywhere close. Dam the guy is passionate about his...

 I was a General Motors dealer mechanic for 34 god dammed years. I was underpaid and overworked for long hours, worked Saturdays away from my family, busted the skin on my knuckles, burned my arms, down on my knees, and strained my back bent over the fender of a million stupid dumb ass lifted...

Hard to beat Fargo.  I think Arrival was great too, just watched it again last night. 

I have a 220 watt electric steering unit that came out of my 4 seat buggy for sale. It has worked great with zero issues. The car it came off of had 10.75 front sand tires and it steered them with ease. It is the assist motor, control unit and wire harness. Originally purchased from Pacific...

These came out of my buggy. The front covers are worn but the rears are decent. I have 1 brand new oem seat cover I will include, it just needs to be installed. I believe EMPI still sells the covers. I also have a set of 4 Crow harnesses, they are the padded 4" with single upper attachment...

Eric spent quite a bit of time fabricating the rear upper shock mounts. They aren't just hollow boxes, there's a lot going on with them. Ever tried to bend and shape 4130? It's really a tough material to work with. And fawk he got the rear pivots all burned in, they are permanent for sure! We...

Been working (not me of course) on the rear setup. We are working under the umbrella of existing parts, that means arms, CVs, axles and 14/16" shocks. It took a while to get everything just right but I think it's there now. I picked up the rear springs yesterday from Denny at Foddrills in...

I have a pair of Fox 14" coilover shocks, these are 2" emulsion shocks, 7/8 shaft with no reservoir. The springs are Eibach 350 over 450. These were purchased new in 2014 and have been installed on my V8 sand car since I bought them. They DO NOT leak and are presently filled with Fox oil and...

Eric Emler has been working on the engine and trans placement. He wants the cv cups in line with the centerline of the arm pivots to maximize wheel travel, mostly to increase droop travel without going crazy with cv angle. This setup should yield us a very modest angle in the low teens at ride...

Very cool, thanks for bringing it back to the surface.    The wife and I hiked the Granite Mountain Hotshot Memorial trail yesterday as a matter of fact. We’re only about a 90 minute drive from Yarnell. The start of the journey wasn’t too bad with just small patches of snow here and there, but...

The time has come to retire our current car and get the new frame all set up to receive the engine/trans and the rest of the parts that will be transferred over. Yesterday we pulled the engine/trans out and now I have to disassemble it. Eric specifically needs the rear trailing arms so he can...
