Hey guys I finally bought that blaster today i was talking about in my first threadI:I We got into it immediately today; Me and my bud that i bought it from decided to tear into the rear brake caliper after ordering some new front brake return springs and what i thought was wrong with it actually i was right so it was seized; RUSTED to HELL and back inside, but after about a gallon of PB Blaster (LOL) all the rust came off and now the caliper will moveI:I now all i need is new brake pads which he said he might still have in his garage, so more cash i dont need to spend so lets hope that caliper will work for a few more rides. next up is when i go pick up those springs that i ordered i will have to order all new brake lines and a clutch cable too cuz i forgot to order that too when i was on the phone with my local shop. so about $12 worth of springs and im $312 into this blaster so far (and yes i will be keeping track lol). please tell me what you guys think so far! (btw engine will be rebuild completely (STOCK) with new everything just about)

OK, long awaited update (for me anyway) last week i got the front left brake line and springs in, they work a LOT better than no brakes at all,but i still have to plan stopping haha, I just picked up my other cables today and will be putting them on the blaster soon. but first the axle carrier i took apart needed bearings. I ordered some off eBay, they came in today also (its like Christmas I:I) they are All Balls Racing..very good bearings I've read? So anyway the reason i took the rear end apart is to drill a grease fitting in the axle carrier to keep things rollin' goodB) but the problem with the fitting is that it goes down a little too far into the axle carrier and is probably going to rub on the bearing spacer, its from a diesel truck that was in the back of my shop so its what i had, what size fitting would you guys recommend? i'll try to upload pics soon, i need to take my ipod (i dont own a camera lol) to my shop so i can take pics. hopefully photobucket will work for me. and please complain if i seem to ramble on about things..i type exactly what i am currently thinking lol
