    Well my damn phone isn't emailing the other pic for some reason (Thanks Verizon) but I got the harness run through the firewall tonight, and got the power and grounds all connected. Having a bag of 100 uninsulated butted seam 18-22 ga butt connectors makes for quick splicing, and I'm using a cheap but decent crimper for weather pack terminals that actually dose a decent job. Decided NOT to solder because I don't want to subject the stock wiring to the heat required.

    Just doing to do a little bit each night, probably have it wired by the end of the weekend. Then I'll probably start working on swapping the K-Member and A-Arms.

    Looks pretty good so far...
    I can't wait to start on my build!
    Any real advantage to changing the K-member or front control arms? I'm not planning on autocrossing mine or anything....
    Or is it just a weight thing for you?
