Thanks everyone! Ramsey and Arod thanks for coming through the day before bulli. VERY APPRECIATED I honestly thought i was going to make bulli, i had no steering and no 4th the day before. I swapped out the steering box Thursday and was able get 4th (miracle), Though missing alot of details im very happy on how it came out and how it drove. I do have some glitches ( Steering alignment and some electrical) but now there is plenty of time for that.
