Another update,

I just ordered some new balljoints and tie rod ends for the upcoming suspension rebuild. They should be here in a couple days.

Tomorrow I'm going to place an order on Rodney Dickmans rear inner tie rods. I might as well do it all at once!

Nice, I like what you're doing to yours.

We're going to be keeping Rodney busy, I just placed an order with him for a complete suspension rebuild on my '87. Hopefully this year I'll be able to make it to some cruises and gatherings!

Thanks

Hope to see you and the car out at a few cruises this summer for sure!


Not a whole lot new to report here, just waiting on the suspension parts so I can add to this pile:



Also a quick pic of some of the new tools from Christmas to help make the suspension job go smoothly come spring:



I really hope the next post I make is to say my wheel I sent in has been repaired and its back in my possession!

No word on the wheel getting repaired yet...

however... some suspension parts found their way to my house





The stockpile grows yet again! I really can't wait to get everything on the car and feel the difference!

Just placed an order with Rodney Dickman for some rear inner tie rod ends

Other than a few odds and ends, I have covered most of the suspension rebuild parts! I can't wait

Good news! My rim is fixed and I should have it back soon! Now I can get the tires mounted and balanced and they'll be ready to go in the spring as well

The last of my orders are made... I think!

Just waiting on Rodney's rear inner tie rod ends to show up, fierostore upper control arm bolts and washers, hub centric rings for my rims, and lastly I saw a good deal on these little guys:



which I think will work well with my front splitter/undertray that I am going to build when I get home... I can't wait for everything to show up and start working on this thing again!

Fierostore front upper control arm bolts!



They have to be the most expensive bolts I've ever bought, even with a discount, wow..
