What set up did you use on the front ?I used 92 lincoln mark VII front rotors. direct swap that took less than 30 minutes. I had a local machine shop do the rear axels, so I dont know what he did exaclty, just glad it could be done. He now has a jig using a ranger 5 lug drum I brought, so I can make more whenever I want.Quote from: 1WLD BRD;278832nice car, but why is the back, passenger side of the hood sticking up in the air?The hood sticks up because I just can seem to align it! Everyone I have spoken to tells me that its never quite right once you remove the hood. If you have a secret, please let me know.Quote from: Live Fast;278847Where do you buy these clear corner lights?Also would it be possible to get a video of it at idle? I want to hear this cam!I made them myself and you dont have to break them open to do it. Takes me less than 15 minutes per side. All you need is a long screw driver, hammer, and wire snips. 1)You take the long screw driver and hammer and stick screwdriver into bulb hole to crack the yellow lens into peices.* A slightly bent large thin screwdriver works great 2)Once its in peices you just maneuver the broken pieces towards the bulb hole.3)Then use the wire snips to cut the broken peices up into smaller peices until the broken pieces are big enough to fall out the hole. 4)Then you rinse out the remaining debri and let it dry. Wallah, clear corners. Quote Selected
