yup

got the disc brake upgrade from Ctmandu ordered the master from an 80 luv

looking for some brake lines (any suggestions appreciated) you say suspension upgrades? like welding a filler plate on the lower control arms? or switching to poly bushings (if i can find them)

I got a flare tool set from Napa pretty cheap and just make my own lines. It's pretty easy...

I'm jealous of your engine swap. I have a '72 and if the motor ever gives up I may consider something similar. Problem is it runs too good now to do anything to. Good luck on your swap, keep us updated.

Ahh, I bought new ones for mine from Carquest...

the suspention i read somewhere on the pre 76 and even i think the 76 77 LUVs had somethign that made the handling feel sloppy that was fixed in the later years, but it might have been the bushings. And i know one thing is that putting poly bushings will help, I just cant quite put my finger on what it was that I read about.... Mabye some one here can help shed some light for me...

maybe someone could tell me where i could get a bigger sway bar and some poly bushings for the control arms and forward strut bar

you did a rack and pinion conversion?

did you just add the rack? if so what was the critical dimension for the rack width. i got this power rack from a 200sx really looks like it would fit.

should the rack dim for the inner tie rods match the luv dims exactly or is there room for fudge
