Got the rear suspension cleaned up and ready to install. New shocks, springs, wheel bearings, suspension bushings and 2 new inboard CV joints.

Rear suspension done! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
I had to solve one problem. Got it all together, put the calipers on and the rotors wouldn't turn, they were frozen solid. I got a light and shined it up from below. I could see a trace of light between the inboard pad and the rotor but nothing between the outboard pad and rotor. The calipers were positioned too far inboard. Took it all apart and I had painted the caliper flanges on the bearing carrier portion of the control arm. DOH! Got rid of the paint and the problem. Dave Attached image(s)
