Project KOIL
Put in the new suspension (upper and lower control arms, coil spring and struts), installed the new brakes (master cylinder, calipers, rotors, and pads), replaced the CV half shaft assemblies, and put in the new steering rack and pinion assembly (as well as the outer tie rods). The car will definitely need an alignment after […]
Currently in the middle of changing the coil springs and struts, as well as sanding and repainting parts such as the steering knuckle. As soon as the paint dries, I’m going to press in the new lower ball joints into the steering knuckle and as well as the new bearings (and hubs). Had to do […]
Trying to remove the rod that runs through the upper control arm in the center of the bushings. Couldn’t get it out with force, will have to resort to other methods. (this is the cool part of the job)
Here’s what the suspension/brakes looks like before I touch any of it. Just finished putting in the steering rack and pinion, as well as the outer tie rods. Out with the old, in with the new!Using basic hand tools right now, saving up for some air tools! HAND TOOLS I USE
Just received my Anycubic i3 Mega. Looks like a quality printer so far. Going to do some test prints, to make sure I assembled it correctly.Here’s the test print in case you’re wondering if I got it to work. It’s louder than I expected.
I cleaned up the inside and did an oil change. Wanted to take some pictures of the interior before any modifications started.
Just bought some jack stands from Walmart and put the car up. Rotors look badly rusted, and pads are worn out. The rain is making the paint look better than it should. With the wheels off, the car looks ready to fly 😉
I was just curious…
Got the plates for the car from the DMV today. Did a horrible installation of the amplifier and subwoofer in the car (that’s what the red wire from the battery is for). Cleaned up under the hood a little bit. Checked under the car and found the crack in the exhaust pipe. It was hard […]
Some of the earliest renders for the prototype’s design were conceived. Created with a crude experience of SolidWorks.
