    I pulled the remaining harness(es) out of my parts parts, pulled the rear suspension off the parts car and went to my storage unit and swapped out rear suspension on the 4wd. had the jack partially give out when i was down and lowering down the car, and almost broke my leg. now i'm limping around with a messed up ankle.

    looks like my new project car is already taking hits at me

    I've decided that my car is a girl, she's picky as hell, won't listen to me, always wants to fight me, and when i give her presents it's never good enough and she always wants more.

      all new lines and proportioning valve. the only original lines left in the car are from the master to the prop valve.

      i shoulda bled the f-ing brakes b4 i dropped the motor back in as i'll bet those lines snap @ the master and i'll have to redo them

          I put the new upper mounts and bearings on the fron, and it still pops. I guess it's either inner tie-rods or the sway bar endlinks still aren't tight enough.

                            Vics

                            My VICS wasn't working... checked for voltage at the connector, there was...checked for vacuum and there wasn't. Removed the solenoid and blew through the openings like the manual said with and without power running to it. It wasn't working the way it was supposed to. Pulled a solenoid from '91BP-GT's 91 GT he had in his field. I noticed that the solenoid he had was the same one that hooks up to the fuel pressure regulator, based on the part number. Nonetheless I put it on and the vics came back to life.

                            I assume that both these solenoids have the same rating or are identical. In comparing the ones I had on my GT, the solenoid for the VICS had a 71 on one part number and a 65 on the other. The solenoid for the fuel regulator had a 72 and a 70 respectively. It work...it's all I can say...
