Darn close!

Tomrrow will either be great or I will be one very upset dude. Why? Because tomorrow will be the maiden voyage of the Splittie with the IRS rear end, rear 944 disks, modified fuel system, and modified oil filter/line setup.

Too much change isn't it..? The probability for errors is too great! Too much stress! Ahhhhhh!

If if if all goes well I hope to weasel it onto a rack for an allignment. I am sure the rear end needs fine tuning.

The one part that is still perplexing me is where the dang upper shock mount go. Yup, no rear shocks at the moment. We will see how scary that turns out to be.

Really my biggest fear is having bad angle on the CVs (Type2 units) and blowing the CV open over rough pavement. We will see what happens there as well.

More to come...

Also it is nice to be home where the VW parts and tools are. Ahhh Therapy.
