Re: Front suspension conversion/ rebuild. powdercoat pictures

So far, I have ordered the following:

-Energy suspension urethane front control arm bushings
-New Moog ball joints, upper and lower
-New Moog tie rod ends, all 4
-3 inch drop coil springs
-Doetsch Tech drop front shocks
-Energy suspension urethane front sway bar bushing set
-New Moog idler arm
-new Moog pitman arm

Today I am ordering the drop spindles from Summit

End result will be a good handling suspension that is lowered 5.5 inches from stock and should last the rest of my life.

First thing I did was blow it all part and begin the grease scraping part of the job. This takes forever. Once I get it all clean, I will bead blast all of the parts and powdercoat them in 60 percent gloss black with silver powdercoat detail items.

The first parts that I completed were the upper control arms.
