Received powder coated front lower control arms from my buddy and had to modify it to fit Koni coil-overs. After some drilling and cutting I was able to accomplish that. At the same time I installed new control arm bushings and ball joint.

Here are Koni coil-overs, great shocks

While installing front suspension parts ran into some trouble

I blame it on the early morning hours...mixed Nm with ft/lbs, but it was easy fix after I went to ACE:)

After that everything went smoothly and by the end of the day I was done with front suspension minus brakes...still debate if I should install it:) Just kidding

    That's a good idea, thank you. Today I picked up 302 engine that I need to rebuild, it will take some time...after that I will be more than 2 steps behind:)
