Nope! I'm just not there yet. And after that I've got to replace a few wheel bearings and the front tie rod ends. It's just stuff that has to be done. And alot of you guy's will eventually have to go through it to. So don't laugh. Your times comming. I've just been forced to get a head start on you. The same repairs I'm having to make now may not happen to you guys for another 5 or even 10 years from now. But they will happen. You can bet on it.  |
Rick, brother I do feel for you! If you go to zfdoc.com & read Bill's write up on the bad parts...well the a good many of the pictures are of my parts...I had to buy $600.00 worth of masters and slaves before I got some stuff to work with. As for the rest of the "not fun repair work to do to a ZR-1".....I'm right there with ya bud. I've yet to stop finding things that need to be repaired vs stuff that ya wanna do because it's fun. My headers are still in the box from christmas...Front suspension over haul must come first....then next year it's the rear suspension...then I will have finished all the necessary jobs to keep a 20 yr old car safe...and then I can start the fun stuff, hopefully!
:
P.S. I sent Bill B three masters and three slaves and I have one of each still in my tool box.....actually the slave is just the body, but the two masters are still together, one leaks out the back and the other has soooo much bore run out that when it was in the car I could feel it when I pushed the clutch pedal!
You ain't alone Bro! Keep the faith!
