In Canada we just had a nice long weekend ( Victoria’s Birthday May 24 ) Having three days off I was able to get the suspension done on the 93 V8 4.2 . I would have liked to have been in Carlisle again this year but it wasn’t in the cards. Did anyone go to Carlisle this year ?  (Scott? )
 
I put in H&R Springs (green), Bleistien Shocks, new rear control arms, front ball joints (Lower control arm)and new tie rods. The finished look is just wonderful, it’s been lowered by an inch from the stock set up. The look is sophisticated, but sporty without overdoing it.  During the dismantling process of the suspension on the V8’s there were quite a few sized nuts that I had to torch off …propane torch isn’t the best but it sure sped the process up. 
 
So now I have to fix that pesky Oil light, but not before reading Professors GT email again. ( this is meant to be a complement) I’ve replaced one of the two sensors / Oil pressure switch to no avail. 
 
Next weekend I will be putting in the E-Cut out system .
 
Cheers
