Put the car together tonight. Still need to put the rear interior in, but I have to notch out the back seat frame because of the upper control arm torque box reinforcements. Took my time and torqued everything to spec. Only zip tied the brake lines, e-brake and abs. I will address that better later. I just wanted to get on the road.
Took a quick cruise and I am very happy with everything. No gear whine as of yet and the cars feels....well.....SOLID. No slop in the drive train and it feels real tight. Had some squeaking and grinding, but I attribute at least the grinding to the brakes cause it only happened when I applied the brakes. Squeaks could be anything so I will see how that goes. I am taking her to work tomorrow so that should hopefully straighten out some things during the long drive.
Once again...thanks to Tim, Mike, Tom and Gotti. Another project compelted successfully!
