do you guys get tires of me coming on here and saying not much of an update or not having pics? lol I figured so, so I guess I won't type a long thing.
I just painted some control arms after installing rubber bushings, I used the summit rust converter, then some rustoleum rattle can self etch primer, until I figured out what paint I wanted to use.
I ended up giving the rustoleum appliance epoxy in black on them. Looks good we'll see how they hold up. I found out the one lower is going to need an oversized balljoint, it only took one smack to knock it out and light pressure to reinstall, and later it fell out while sitting on the bench. I also need to buy another upper shaft for the upper control arm as the one I got new is offset and flat not rounded like stock so they'll match. I was going to do the shaft, nuts and washer silver and forgot and sprayed it all black, might try and go back and do it sometime.
I also tore the car down more to get it ready to tip over. I removed the rear bumper with the impact bar and all, found the crappy tail pan work to be sub par. I'll most likely need to change it. I also removed the decklid, spoiler and ends, wiring harness in back, basically everything. Now I have to unload the trunk and the parts on top, then decide whether or not to remove the glass front and rear. I'm afraid to damage it removing it, and I'm afraid to damage it rolling the car on it's side without removing it lol.
I am currently removing the bolts and nuts that hold the rear end, shocks and sway bar in place so that I can remove all that. Also getting materials to build the tip over jig.
