Agreed ... but I've seen other cars that have similar lowering kits without the severe camber ... which gets one thinking ... is there another issue that needs fixing. Are there differences in the frames/suspension that I'm dealing with?Originally Posted by DMC5180
That’s want adjustable control links are for.

- No matter how many people believe in a dumb idea ... it is still a dumb idea!
- Some cars look fast. Some cars look faster than time!
- The question is not "where did the time go" but rather "where to go in time".

This is such an amazingly cool photo.Nice work! Yes, here is the picture:
It's a photo of JZD and Giorgetto Giugiaro with the first wooden mockup of what would become the DeLorean. When I first looked, I almost didn't notice the front grill badge with the "JZD" lettering.

Replaced both door sill seals with new rubber, cleaned off all original adhesive from the stainless steel plates, put new rivets on each end and reinstalled with new stainless steel screws.

Quite a few things today:
Installed my new binnacle that I've been sitting on for 5 years (bought in this thread)
Replaced the instrument cluster printed circuitboard while I had it off (DeloreanGo)
Replaced the circuitboard hardware with brass nuts/washers
Tested my fuel gauge and low fuel light (using instructions in this thread indicating my low fuel light was a bad LED. Found/fixed a few other bad LEDs at the same time.
Replaced the gas cap because I've got an emissions test coming up soon and it will fail for cracked rubber (DeloreanGo)
Replaced drivers window switch canon plug (DeloreanGo). The old one was melty and mishapen giving me a bad/intermittent connection. But now neither window moves at all. Gotta check my fuses.
Installed new floormats (DeloreanGo). Looks good.
5 speed, grooved hood, grey interior (Nov '81)

So far so good. Dave programs it to match your sending units high/low readings prior to shipping. It’s reading correctly now but the real test will be tomorrow’s drive.
