So we got the tank drained, cleaned out, and the pump/sender/filter installed, and everything back in the car.
Heat shields, differential, springs, shocks, driveline, torque bar, sway bar, all back in there. I bought an output shaft seal but my buddies talked me into leaving it (I may pay for that later). The bushing was nice and tight.
New sway bar bushings while they were out.
Oh, and the exhaust was damaged on the way out, so we’ll be going muffler-less until we can get that repaired. There was this one super soft (rusty) spot and literally just munched with a modest hit with a deadblow.
