First bit fitted to chassis! Feels great to bolt something on. The 7.5inch diff looks nice and chunky thats for sure.
Anyone know where i can get a new diff breather plug?

Had to do a bit of squashing modding and cutting but managed to fit the Sierra steering column bracket onto the granada shaft. Granted it sits below rather than ontop but the bolt holes are still in the same position so i think it should be ok. If anyone thinks it might be a problem let me know before i start welding stuff up!
Have to admit i do prefer the Granada stalks and cowel.

Oh also looking at the revision for the mt75 plans it highlights that one of the uprights from the tunnel needs to be changed to a new size but one is not listed. Dont suppose anyone knows what the tube size is along with the cut angles ect.

Excellent somebody using the exact same Granada gear as me ...looking forward to the wiring up bit ?

I cant wait........ I have a Auto RB25det skyline engine loom, Granada steering gear and nothing else so i can foresee alot of restless nights and hair pulling.

That steering wheel is hideous!!!!! :D

Even worse than a sierra one!

Good for iva though until it accidently falls off afterwards

Indeed! the main reason i need it is for age related plates. But i do prefer the stalks compared to the sierra. Indded at some point im sure the wheel will drop off somewhere to be replaced by a nice new one.... :D

Still need to mill down the 26 into a 25 on the pully cover.... Also need to install cross bars below the engine mount but will do that when i next remove the engine. Real glad i did the chassis stretch!
Monday it will have its wheels!

It's a shame I am going back to 4-pot for my build as my heart has always been with 6's

It's going to be fun by the looks of it, and the chasiss stretch may make it a better drive dynamicaly too.

TT

Yeah with any luck the stretch might do something good for a change! heh.
Still a real shame that you are not doing your v6 but i guess you can allways change back in the future after the IVA.
