TODAY we tidy up some loose ends and prepare ourselves for the next phase of the project!
Our little GT6 has seen a lot of work over the last several years... not just the restoration of its bodyshell, but also the complete and utter re-imagining of it's drivetrain. The LS4 and T5 got finalized in their new homes last time, and today we push on towards the next phase of the build.
Pilot bearings (or bushings) are a cheap, yet pretty crucial part of a drivetrain… without one, you’re going to have troubles! But what do you do when one doesn’t exist for your project? You make one of course! Bushings vs bearings has been an ongoing topic for decades, but whichever you choose, just know that it’s not an area to skip over quickly - no matter how simple it may seem.
With the car finally standing on its own weight we are able to roll it outside for some beauty shots, finish up the rear toe links (like we’ve been meaning to do for ages) and take things up a level with some Jenga Blocks! … I mean, wooden show stands!
The new custom driveshaft rounds things off for today and gets us in good standing to push on with the next “exhaustive” push for the car.
Stay tuned!
