Here is the pics of the kick down cable bracket
First I bent it up

Then welded a bolt in to keep it stable

Then I cut it in half and slotted the bolt holes for some adjustment

Then a slap of paint

Just waiting for my HDT air intake to come back from paint, and Monday i'll grab some longer studs for the throttle body because I put a 2" spacer under it.
The new thermostat housing should be here soon so I can run the top water hose under the fuel rail instead of over the top of it because I had the fan hump and water hose hump removed from the HDT air intake.

Finally got around to the rear end, springs shock, new CV's and re bushing. But I left the VP control arms in to see if the 20's would fit but the off set is just to big and they scrub on the spats so tomorrow i'll stick the VR/VS arms in and go back to the Grange wheels for now.
