Re: Gambler 500 car build
Heaven help me if I did that to the wife's crown vicky. Good luck in the race
Re: Gambler 500 car build
Love it! I've been wanting to do the Gambler 500 in the Northwest for a couple years now too. Since the finances aren't going to work for me for at least a few more years, I'll have to settle on living vicariously through you. Hope you take lots of pics and have a blast!
Re: Gambler 500 car build
I finished up the drivers rear quarter last night and started on the lift... Not any fun putting "Donk" universal pucks in a car, universal means install, remove, cut/trim, reinstall, remove, cut/trim....repeat...
Re: Gambler 500 car build
That is pretty good size pucks too, and the front would be especially rough
Re: Gambler 500 car build
I got one side done but now I can't get the spring compressor out....LOL I ended up using 2 1/2 inches of the puck, looks like it gave me about 3 in of lift.
Re: Gambler 500 car build
So what is wrong with having a spring compressor rattling around inside the spring anyway?
Re: Gambler 500 car build
I still need it to do the other side...LOL
Re: Gambler 500 car build
So this means another spring compressor?

Re: Gambler 500 car build
Got the lift done, DANGER is all I have to say about lifting a car...LOL

Re: Gambler 500 car build
Not bad Jon, do suppose my wife would approve lifting hers? What she really wants though is the Trunk Monkey in the trunk with a pop up 30 cal for the people who honk at her all the time :D
Re: Gambler 500 car build
We could just build her a arm that raises up when she pushes the button... Maybe a "your number one" hand...LOL
Re: Gambler 500 car build
We are half way there already. I have a switch for the electric lock installed that says Trunk Monkey :D
