Back from the dead!
It has been a very busy few months. I spent January in Neenah, WI for an internship, then had to get back into the groove of school. I have been off and on working on the Barracuda. We have been getting an unusual amount of snow
Since, my last post.....right half of the front structure is complete. I have replaced the left frame rail, shock tower and have gotten the firewall patched. I am currently working on aligning the fender to get the inner fender welded into the correct position. Everything is going very well. The firewall needs a bit more work to look as good as I want it to, but I want to get the front solid before I get too far into details.
I have ordered upper control arms, a disc brake kit, and all of the bushings. I have sand blasted all of my suspension parts. I boxed the lower control arms with the AR Fabrications plates from Mancini racing. I read that they don't do a whole lot, but I figured for $25, it cant hurt to do it anyways. They were very easy to weld in and look great! I have some chassis black to spray on all of the parts and I am going to undercoat the areas the K member mounts to and the shock towers to mount the front suspension.
I want to get it back on its wheels so I can easily move it if needed. I need a carrier for the differential, has anyone bought the $395 DoctorDiff carrier? I'm looking into buying either it, or the Yukon Gear unit for $100 more. Any advice?
