seam weld the shock towers, had those pull apart on the last one i ran, spot welds from factory were really far apart. an extra 10 - 1/2" welds would have been all it needed

Seam weld them where?

Take the dog bone out n replace with 2" square tubing.. And change the subframe mounts in the front.. Take out the rubber shims and run allthread through all and suck it all together..

thanks

also i wanted to raise my rear bumper but was trying to figure out what to do and see if anyone had any ideas? here are some pictures





should i raise the entire assembly or should i remove the bumper shocks?

also behind the right front headlight there are some relays and i was wondering if they run anything important?

[redneckcustoms72]

if its a stock show i would run it without a rear bumper, i think the relays are for stock fuel pump,fans ang ignition maybe if im remembering right

Any major areas I should look for rust wise?? Getting a 95 sierra wagon cheap. Drivers rear behind tire is kinda crusty. Anywhere special to look? If kts to far gone I'm gunna scrap it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

^^^^^^^^^^Had a Celebrity driver that must have spent some time in the east. Driver side rear control arm pulled away from body/frame due to rust.

another way is to weld a washer to the outside of each end.

Thanks. You don't think stock suspension would tolerate mostly heavier competition??

Show in mind (MM) had about 15 cars, most were underbuilt and super rusty...one Gran AM, one bubble Cavi, one fox body....the rest were W's

I walked around looking after the show and the top 3 were not rusty and the 07 was not rusty... And I would personally not bring nothing but a w-body to MM... Everytime they bring a rwd the w-bodies tear it up so a ciera would not hold up with out a yrs worth of welding...

After actually reading the rules, maybe they weren't so under built....W is an easy choice. Pretty soft build. Thanks.

I often make the mistake of assuming that a half stripped car must be half built.

got 4 runns on 91 century, 3 top 3 finishes always last front wheel drive running in all 4.dont think it will make 5 the cradle bent inbetween the control arm and im out of patches.RIP "frankin buick"

[dodge494]

Just got a 90 century from my buddy to run. So far from reading these i've gotten that I should...


Tuck trunk
Slide hood down
Change front bumber bolts
Raise rear bumper
Put square tube in motor mounts


Thats all I can remember after reading 10 pages lol.

Pleasae let me know of anything else so I can get a list of things I need to do when I get time to work on it

Thanks

Front sub frame bolts. Replace them they like to break. I rebolt the back as well. Tucking is not enough notch and prebend a little

Strengthen ball joints, or replace. Had a Celebrity with 74,000 miles, and broke a ball joint on about the 5th hit

[24pack]

put a good bumper on the front or put something behind it if you can
