first thing to do is get the parking brake going.
since I swapped over the 2002 rear, I had to use those parking brake cables for the disk brake setup. so to make that work, I will have to weld/bolt in the braket for the cables. its tough for me because I dont know how to weld, but I hate drilling holes in the transmission tunnel for cracks to start forming.
drilled out both console brackets and its not even close to a direct fit, but should be fairly simple to get the console fitted in when the dash is in, then drill/bolt it in the right spot. The parking brake handle bolt holes dont line up, but it looks like you use the front one because that lines up where the cable comes through.
one of these threads mention cutting down the dash frame in some spots and they had some pics. can someone point me to pics/writeup on that? any other advice would be greatly appreciated.
