  1. only 6 more posts and the classifieds will open up to you.
  2. awesome!! now copy/paste this into the build thread forum so it has its own place in the spotlight!
  3. how does one cast their vote?
  4. I wonder if any car that used the Peugeot have an external slave...
  5. after 7 more posts the classifieds will open up to you. you should start a build thread and tell us all about it.
  6. fantastic color! that truck is going to POP!

    my ratcheting wrenches are stubbies. I figure I'm never going to put a huge amount of force on them and I figured I'd go with the short ones so it'll fit in more places. worth every penny
  8. brilliant!
  9. well, it hasn't sold for 100 bucks. I mean, I can ask a grand for mine but that doesn't make it true.
  10. yup, at that point I'd have to make a determination if ubolts or a new yoke is the easiest path. and if I got a new yoke, I'd probably still drill it out and go with the little ubolts.
  11. the vacuum ball? it's where your system stores vacuum pressure for times when the engine isn't making as much. as with the evap canister, there is no single answer. some guys have reported no issues, others have reported that they had to reinstall it after the hvac would randomly default to defrost every time they came to a stop. I guess worst case is you reinstall it and route is somewhere out of the way.
  12. while we're waiting for one of the dealership guys to grab that build thread, you should definitely start a build thread about your new baby. I know a bunch of members will be interested in a longbed sporTruck! you've got a lucky kid. my first ride was a handmedown ford Aerostar. ugly as all get out, but at least it was a stickshift so it wasn't boring
  13. is that a shadow on the door?
  14. The only negative is cost. everything else is a positive compared to paint
  15. not the first, won't be the last. I eventually found my socket when I cut the lower control arm brackets off.
  16. if powdercoat is an option, it should be the only option
  17. yes and no. it's your gas vapor box and plenty of owners have removed them. Some report no downfall, others report smelling gas on hot days (since that's where your tank would vent the vapors).
  18. the main chucks of the engine bay harness are still available new as left and right halves.
  19. what part of it are you thinking about? aside from the stock CAD (which you can definitely bypass), your HVAC, CCV, and MAP sensor need vacuum. oh plus the EGR if you're in a emissions-heavy location.
  20. while you're waiting for the VIN info to arrive, you should start a build thread and include lots of pics!
