Congrats Mike!

Thanks. I spent the netter part of a day Tues cleaning the sonic drink explosion out and making the outside shiny again.

Greg found it was not the booster. It was just full of air from being fully disconnected. Pedal bleeding wouldn't have worked. He had to vacuum bleed it 4 times.
I fixed the ABS prob. Looks like engine light is two codes. One is the knock sensor and with a non SC engine I could just ignore it since it's not needed but the emissions people will give me crap so I will do a relocate mod since it's like $600 to get to the oem location. A $20 part should fix this.

I'm stopping back by Greg's for him to throw it back on the scanner to double check what codes are their now since we reset and the light went off only to come back on.

The other code was P1490 related to a selenoid near the evap can. I poked around a bit and found another plug in I had missed snapping fully.
I got the codes cleared again so I'm praying they stay off.

Yay! I want to see pictures of it on the road! Driving!

If the light stays off I need to make an appt to get the special inspection.

Narly looks great. Time for some chasing. ;-)

That is so sexy

Awesome Mike, can't wait to see you on the road.

post jump video

Alan got to see it today.
Kredit says I can't jump it unless he's in it.

Engine light is still offf!!! Last prayer is that the inspection doesn't get Bobbed on Wednesday.

Funny guy,

Point.

How does it ride compared to the factory stuff??

I passed the Level 3 inspection.

Inspection Cop: One question. What are those straps on the new suspension for?
Me: limiting strap in case I want to take it on some sweet jumps.
Cop: Awesome. You passed. Go have fun

He also commented on how nice the new suspension looked and was impressed when I answered it was just Geoff and I that did the quick frame swap.

I was so happy I drove straight over to emissions, got in line and then wondered if it was even the every other year time to even be there. I checked some paperwork and found I did not. But it was too late because someone was behind me so I just enjoyed the good weather and when I got up to the guy I said, "I changed my mind. This was fun though, see you next year," and drove off.

Today I got it reregistred as salvage restore and the lady (dressed as Clark Kent) commented that my photo was no longer visible on my license. I said I'd get a new one if I didn't have to wait so she got me in for a photo and they printed a new license as I finished up with the registration paperwork. So now, I'm officially beardly legal.

How does it drive? Still like a truck. No swaybars and I like. Just enough lean going through corners, more stable with the 3" width addition. We got the front raised up a bit last night and we even had time to replace the shot rear leaf frame hanger bushing and redrill my frame for my skid LOR had made me last year.
Itching to take it on some actual bumps besides the speed bumps I have't been slowing down for now.

Thanks for all the support and the help from Geoff and Chris

Pretty darn amazing, what Geoff and Chris can do. Amazing!

Fantastic!
