            FRONT END SUSPENSION REMOVED


The torsion bar removal tool arrived and made removing the torsion bars easy. With the bars removed the front suspension and steering linkage were detached from the car frame. As can be seen in the picture above all components were removed at once. With the assembly out it will be disassembled, the individual pieces cleaned and painted then reassembled using new bushings, seals, shocks, tie rod ends, ball joints and so on. 


To change the sway bar bushings it appears it will be necessary to cut the brackets open install the new bushings then weld the brackets back together. If anyone knows a better way of changing these bushings please contact us.
