I love the coilovers,
theyre for an 86 so i had to tap a hole to get the camber plates to fit since the 80s are off a bit.
they require some modification and fab work.
The fronts dont come with a spindle so you must cut your old ones off and weld them on.
and the rear is a true coilover set up,so you need to reinforce the rear towers.
you also need need to cut out a bigger hole for the new mount up top and weld it in

I fixed the turn signal and headlight switch wiring.
no more toggle switches!lol.i threw my wood grain wheel on it.
i also found out the horn works.
the carb crapped out yesterday,and the alternator is going out.
so that gives me an excuse to throw my mikunis on.
i pulled all the ac and most of the emission crap out today.i just need to plug up the egr ports.
Ill probably put the carbs on wednesday since thats my day off.engine bay cleaning soon.
