Back is done, on to the front (later in this thread)
Hey guys, Starting winter projects: Rear Brakes/Suspension are up first. -This is a street/daily driver. Just trying to get the sagging ass up and improve the ride quality. - So far I've got New: 100lb 914rubber upper and lower shock rubber bushings Plan is to buy: Rear control arm bushings (914Rubber) Rear Caliper Rebuild Kit (If that seems beyond me I will send to PMB) Discs and Pads will be addressed as needed once I get it all apart. Turn the discs if needed or replace with new pads. We shall see. Any suggestions on anything else with the rear brakes/suspension?? Thanks all! -Rob Front Suspension/Brakes will be part 2 of the project. Just trying to keep it manageable and on budget ish |

Making slow progress on the front rebuild. Rebuild kit for calipers did not come with the little O-Rings that seal the 2 halves. My local hardware store has lots of miscellaneous O-rings so hopefully I can find something that works. We have a line of viton O rings we make under contract for another company we have the ability sell them as it's another industry. Let me know what you need. Mark |
