Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build

well made a little bit of progress over the weekend. Had some repair body pieces that i did not end up using so i returned them to the truckshop and got a full set of new door hinges.
Then i got these goodies in the mail.

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build

Well i needed to fab a new carb spacer so that my throttle linkage would be on the driver side. I ended up getting a trans dapt 1" cast aluminum spacer, then drilling and countersinking the holes in the correct position. Then installed the carb and with my new Lokar bracket for my kickdown and throttle cable.

That's a bad ride dude, what carb are you running and where did you get your trans from, I have a 230i6 and want to get a 2004r also could you tell me all the extra linkage you had to get? Sweet project man.

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build

Thanks! A friend of mine built the tranny here in SoCal. The carb is a Holley390 I got from Jegs. All linkage is standard lokar stuff The carb bracket is trick, holds your kickdown, throttle cable and return springs. I got my throttle pedal from speedway motors, $30 bucks! (Tip from Dino) I'll post that when I get home tonight.

Kickdown - 625-KD-2200RHT
Carb bracket - 625-SRK-4000
Throttle cable - 625-TC-1000HT
Speedway throttle pedal 702-9502
