I haven't updated in a while but I've done a fair amount to the project since July. It took forever but I managed to get the new brake booster and master cylinder installed, with brake lines not made out of copper.

I installed Koni orange shocks and struts and added new Gabriel (OEM) quad shocks.

I discovered a small fuel leak, likely on the fuel filler neck where it goes into the fuel tank. I was waiting for parts to arrive and then got busy but should be able to drop the tank and replace some parts, including the fuel pump in the next couple of weeks.

While I was waiting for fuel pump parts, I installed a Cervini's ram-air kit for the Cervini's ram-air hood (it was on the car when I bought it. I didn't love it at first but it's grown on me). Here's what the underside of the hood looks like and the new airbox setup:


In addition to the fuel tank fixes, upcoming plans including replacing the power steering pump, flushing the differential fluid and replacing the gasket, and having catalytic converters installed on the off-road x-pipe (also on the car when I bought it). The saga continues.

 

Haven't updated this in a while since for some reason I was told I'm not allowed to share links to youtube videos...which I don't understand because I've seen links in multiple other threads.

Anyways, since the last time I updated this I dropped the fuel tank and replaced a few parts to address a small leak, installed new upper and lower control arms, picked up a set of pony wheels for super cheap, replaced the power steering pump, and installed a short throw shifter. Lately, the progress has slowed down though because of the cold weather, work being busier than usual, and my wife and I spent some time shopping for another vehicle.
