70 duster: updating, and a no-dough pro-touring makeover
previous total: 7996.27
apparently I never finished updating the interior redo.
it went very well, all things considered. the front carpets fit fine without having to split them at the trans tunnel. the mass backing I sprung for makes a dramatic difference in road noise and heat transfer. I have to say, I'm pleased with the ACC carpets and mass backing.
also, I really like the way the console/shifter/seats turned out.
I have driven it quite a bit since getting it all back together. have some unwelcome vibrations I believe are from the poly trans mount, so I'm figuring out a rubber version.
also, the rear axle proceeded to get much, much louder. driveline is standing behind it, so I pulled it and dropped it off with them.
I have also decided to dial the front end back a couple of notches as far as alignment, and raise it about 1/2 inch for more ground clearance. its just too damn low top drive like I want to....
