Making lots of progress Ryan! Can you give me more info on the problem with your Energy bushings? I bought a full set, how can I check to see if mine are correct?
Also, how are you going to use those arms to reduce toe in under power? As you know my car with the stock bushings toes in like crazy.
You are tempting me to start ripping my car apart to get these bushings in, but I'm dreading it and procrastinating heavily!
Maybe we can have a little road race when you are up and running?

well first off doing bushing is just plain no fun hell i am suppost to be doing it right now lol bu the tv caught my eye for a bit
getting the stuck bolt out 10 times not fun
but the arms will pull the slack out and make stuff tighter and reduce toeing in and out and will not hop when wet out like other fixed arms do
it pretty simple to make as well so it why not thing
well i guess i will go work on my car as much as i love working on bushings and do little bit more grinding on my oil pan
sigh
ps brad a little bit of windy road fun is not that bad of an idea
well as i said before i will have pic's up
i got some stuff done yesterday woot woot
stuff that got done oil pan is completed
i changed it up some and tested it with water for slosh etc and works good i am glad i did not add another deflector cause it simply would not be needed
reason being is if water does not have issue since it's heavier they oil will not have issue at all
stuff that i did yesterday was remove the knuckle and push some bushings out
i suggest if you are doing this leave the e brake shit alone and just undo the cable form the car much easier
the only issue i had was when i was pushing out the bushings some of the
e brake guide pins would comes off but there cake to put back together
and i cleaned up allot yesterday cause well to much mess for me to take lol
well lest see what i get up to today
chow for now

nice toby
but i must say the low a arm will not be made is just not need for me right now sinc ei just put brand new ball joint's in and it be waste to throw them away
cause maken a new lower arm useing the stock ball joint's is to hard and wonte really improve on any thing
now on the other hand if was to change my ball joints then there whould be good reson to do it
as for the front sub frame i think going to drop that idea as well well for now
i still got some stuff up my sleav thou

ya one of the main advantages of making the arms would be to use aftermarket replaceable ball joints.
well i have mixed thoughts on the energy bushings kit it not a slap together kit as i hoped
i was finishing the rear part of the car and the upper a arms and lower trailing arms bushing's had to be Shavian down so they would fit proper i used Palm sander
at lest the pin's are correct

well she on her 4 feet last night it's bean one year since it has bean this way
and holly dame i forgot how much i loved it in dirty state but i soon fix that with nice wash
all right what i have done to get it to the point were i am at now
i found the front a arm bushings to be cake walk to push out
but the rear's well not so much more of hell taken them out but i found a good easy fast way to getting them out
tools you need
long bolt
vise
big pry bar
some thing sharp
slice off other rubber
grab a arm and slid bolt though hole clamp really good in vise
grab pry bar slip it in and pry on one side and then swap to the other
side and hold the arm arm with the other hand and she should pop out after some prying it take fair amount of force
this is my cake booking it to safety after loud bang happen air gun line found it funny cause he has never went up there before
here is some pic's of my trailing arms installed and the bushing's i had to shave down to fit with a sander pretty much all the rear had to be sanded pretty sad the front was blessing to do the rear umm fit's like crap but can be made to fit
well chow for now i got to go take the motor out
phase 1 is done

Nice job man, I think I'm going to tackle the bushing swap soon too. Not sure if I want to after all the troubles you had.
Nice wheels by the way, look like my old ones?
