spare diff


I cleaned my spare diff case last night and opened it up.  i havent totally decided what my plans are for this one, but im thinking get a different ring and pinion to gear it somewhere between 4.1-4.2 because in the future I have plans to run small wheels.  And Im thinking about filling in the mounts with polyurethane to make them pretty solid.  And I will probably take the diff out of the pumpkin thats on the car right now and put it in this one, or just get this one welded too.  not sure yet
and ill paint both of them at some point
or maybe just keep this one as a spare, not sure

lexus front bumper

took the front bumper off the lexus a couple days ago.  i washed it off pretty well today.  sometime soon i will go to harbor freight and try to get a new orbital sander to replace the old one i have from them that gave out.

this thing is duraflex, so it doesnt brake, its impossible to. 



and ill probably cut my springs soon
