Hi Guys,
After removing my control arms for the rear last weekend, I find I have some work that need to be done. Not having a lot of "special" tools to do a lot of this work, I was looking at Eric's package and it really looks good. Anyone having his rear control arms have some feedback on them? For some more $$ the polybronze set up looks great also. After getting mine unhooked from the driveshaft and shock, I was unable to move the arm by hand, too tight. This doesn't seem like it would be good for handling. Any info or comments will be appreciated.
Thanks, Tom

Now, burn out the remainder of the rubber bushings and replace with whatever kit you wish.


If you have a press and if you have them off it is easy to press them out!

I did my complete setup including repairing the ear hole, new bushings and powdercoating everything for under $100
