Did a quick Google search and Massachusetts requirements are pretty much identical to Ohio. I have a lot of receipts, a certificate of origin for the kit, and a photocopy of the title of the parts from that vehicle...
I have a photocopy of the title because I scrapped the shell. In Ohio this accounts for the donor parts separate from the kit, but weren't purchased new.
They usually have trailers too. Uhaul definitely does. You might be able to use your points and rent a trailer from uhaul if your company doesn't have any. One way may be tricky to coordinate with multiple companies. There's definitely a situation to make this work
If you're serious about buying it, I can try and figure out a uhaul situation. It could easily fit, I would just need to figure out if they have ramps, if I need to build some, etc. Gas is $1.27 here... We can work something out.
I have lost interest over the last year in completing this kit, so it's time to find someone willing to complete it. Located in Columbus, OH Grove City area.
Donor is a 2005 SS/SC WITH A LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL TRANSMISSION. The LSD was not stock on this car, and that's why I chose it as a...
Okay, I got it. I actually did it the opposite way: I put the subframe bolt in first, pried the mount and installed the upper bolt, then REALLY pried on it and installed the lower bolt. I'm by myself tonight and I had to push the prybar with my foot and then blindly finger tighten the bolt...
This is the last mount. The top two and rear lower mount all lined up perfectly. This is a stock mount, so that must mean my upper mounts are welded a little too low, right?
Alright I'm just going to rent some compressors and give it a shot. My strut still doesn't look like the black frame because it doesn't even have mounting studs and mine just looks taller overall because of the dome design towards the middle of the nut.
Okay I removed the top of the strut tower by just holding the shock with channel locks and the nut just spun off with an impact. The spring was already broken so it went well.
I guess the next question is what kind of donor does the photo above mine have? If it's a base model then that...
My strut just looks completely different compared to the red frame above. Do we take the top pedestal off and then flip it upside down or something? I really don't understand how people know what to do here. I have an 05 SS/SC btw. Are base model struts supposed to be used?
What do you mean by spanner wrench? I'm guessing a special socket is needed to get that deep on top of the strut. This is what the top of my strut looks like:
Where are the instructions regarding this part of the build??? How do you remove the strut nut to cut the coil springs and insert the spacer? I see the allen key inside the bolt, but how do you use that to back the bolt if the entire thing is recessed inside of the metal plate? I haven't seen...
