Clean find.
Clean work.
8 Valves, 3/8" air line, 1/8" air line to gauges.... all quick connect Fastnel fittings. Only way to go IMO, great ride in the front.
Nothing wrong with a good four link, but having the bag placed away from the axel gives it more lift and a much smoother ride.

I'm sure theres a pile of bodies in the trunk, people that had the same idea. 2dr or 4dr, that car is still an icon.

I'm going to run the airlines and wiring through the rails.
Are you bleeding the pedal fast or slow?
What type of proportioning valve do you have? Just in case (just asking), are you starting your bleed from the passenger rear wheel?
Thanks.
