On Saturday, I got some steering parts painted.
Did I take today off work to work on Penny? Yes, yes I did.
The control arms are back together with new bushings and balljoints. Probably should’ve painted them after I installed everything, but that’s why I use a rattle can. Touch ups are easy.
All those chips came from the lower control arm shafts. Yup, I drilled a new locating hole for the caster mod.
Finished off the day by washing a bunch of the small suspension parts in the kitchen sink. I cleaned up the mess, so mom wasn't upset about it
More progress coming soon!
