new build!

Thanks guys!
On the hunt for the moog! Lol

I prefer moog lca's and tie rod ends.
They seem to last longer and hold up better than the cheap ones.

Buy the Moog's. Done!!! Keep an eye on eBay. I got my last set of Moog lca's for $36 shipped. May have been cheaper but it has been a while. Outer Tie rods are a gamble on ebay since several manufacturers use the same number as Moog. Otherwise your local McParts store can get them.

Needing to do the front end on this car before the aspire swap, any recommendations for lower control arms inner and outer tierods ? I'm tired of putting cheap lower control arms once a year sometime twice , I drive a lot. I was thinking moog but have no experience with them, I do have moog sway bar end bushings and they out lasted 2 sets of control arms so far and still look great.
Will drilling my new lower control arms for grease fitting and greasing them make them last longer vs buying more expensive ones?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks! I'm planning on doing parts of the dash. Like speaker grills. Center vents/ radio surround possibly the gauge cluster surround and center lx consul.
This should help tie it all together.
I have extra of these parts so if I don't like it no big deal.

This Paint looks great! Are you thinking on painting the dash as well?

[william]

Thanks for the tips guys and I'm definitely getting a air filter thanks for the link .

I fill my cores with phosphoric acid. And let sit overnight. Makes brass shine!

We use it for commercial water heater clean outs, so I nabbed 20gallon for occasional job.

Your heater core should be clean, since the A/C evaporator fins stopped almost all of the dirt and debris. With all the dust I see, you would be an excellent candidate for a cabin air filter.

Before trying to take the heater box apart right?
Once again brave saved the day! If you wouldn't have posted this I would have broken it for sure!
Thank you.

[bravekozak]

Be sure to remove this screw first.

[william]

Awesome thanks for the tip on the resistor.
When it cools down tonight I'm gonna go do some cleaning on the ducting.

[bravekozak]

That's what I used. one sided stick door/window foam tape.
Just be very careful not to damage the blower resistor, when you remove it.

[william]

Small update I pulled the dash tonight.
Going to pull the heater and clean the core.
I'm also going to reseal all the duct work.
Any ideas on what to use to seal it up?
I was think that foam for around house doors and windows.
