[hemilove]

so I had started on the rear end and finally set the bearings in and races torqued down the pinion and crush sleeve and just need to get the ales the rear end will have ford explorer rear disk brakes I got those at an alright cost out of a 99 98 ford explorer sport o yeah my rear end has c clip eliminators using new ford big differential ends






now need to finish this baby up

[hemilove]

so the same day I went to get the disk brakes I found this 1.8 1980 Toyota corolla with a clean interior all in tact so I decided to get it and clean it and install it a little side job that will make the car more family friendly and put more weight on these rear wheels

what it looked like

then after a good vacuuming


I was not satisfied so I pressure washed the carpet till it was clean from all the years of sitting in that car

went ahead and installed it with all the other lil things I had collected at the junk yard

side pillers and the top roof thingy

Not much going on right now. The Corolla is just waiting to be parked after September. Then I will be trying to scrape money together for the alltrac to get a new motor or rebuild. Still haven't decided lol.
