I knew I had some rust going on with my control arm mounts, but once we got the rear wheels off it was apparent that it had gotten much worse. The heim joints are nice but they allow the control arms to flex. Being as the top ones are angled inward and that the car has a panhard bar, the suspension binds up when 1 side moves up or down and the other doesnt, and it pushes on the mounting points.


So we cut out the rust, welded some shit, and created a 1/8" thick metal plate to weld over and tie into the lower control arm mount as well. This should hold the car over until we get a chance to reweld the spring perches for some 2" 120lb springs and move the top control arm mounts in to make it a parallel 4 link setup

Re did and re routed my oil drain hose
Putting in the new radiator tomorrow.
Hopefully that should tidy up the last of the small issues. Now just back to learning tuning and trying to get this thing into a little bit of boost
