DISMANTLING THE FRONT SUSPENSION

In the photo to the right , it is difficult to see how much of the front suspension has been removed.  The sway bar assembly, steering link, ball joints and brake calipers have all been relocated to the restoration table.












Tomorrow we will remove the swivel axle assemblies, springs, shock absorbers and A arm assemblies.  Hours of sandblasting, priming and painting will be required to make these parts look like new again but the end result will be worth it.  It will be very important to determine the original color of  these parts...attention to the details.
