I will consider sending a PM's there's more posibilities that they'll answer you much faster since many Vx'ers have posted many times on their threads

I'll suggest you to provide them with a TLF number for better communication & more accurate description

Well, tonight I made a little progress. I pulled the door panel on the driver's side and pulled the glass out. It wasn't even attached to anything. Now I just hope my SBC mounts show up tomorrow so I can button it back up.

On that note, the weather stripping (around the window) is fubar'd. There isn't even any stripping down the channel towards the front of the VX. The PO chopped it off just below the top of the panel so it was out of site.

I need a replacement. I will try Merlin and the web. Maybe I'll come up with something.

Also, my OME 3" springs showed up today. I'm hoping to do some lifting Saturday. Anyone near Memphis wanna come participate? Yeah, I didn't think so.
That's it for now guys. Thanks for the help and encouragement.

Well, I got the OME 912's on and cranked the torsion bars some. I might go up a little more, but it actually sits a little more level than the pics below look. The pics were taken before I drove it some to shake it out.




I also got the SBC brackets on the spare tire carrier. They work great, and although the hardware is simple and anyone could make it at home with a welder, I liked having them ready to go out of the box. I put on a new battery, rigged up my new air filter setup to do away with the nasty filter laying on the fender.

Also, I put on the SBC window bracket on the driver's side door. It didn't fix my problem though. While digging around in there I found out that the plastic window guide had the teeth broke off one side, so there is nothing holding it to the metal track that goes up and down in the door. Therefore, it is free to tip forward whenever it wants to... So, not sure what I'm going to do about that one. I haven't gotten in to the passenger side door or the ac/heater controls yet.
On a positive, I did manage to get a trim panel from a user that was parting out his VX, so thanks to bluejfan. I look forward to getting that panel installed.

That's it for now.
