SO I was able to steal a few hours mid day and get the front end torn down. I knew I was going to need a ball joint press and wasnt wanting to have it kicking around my garage for several days. (I wasnt sure how the rental thing went)
So anyway I decided if I could at least get the front end torn apart in the few hours I had, that I would be getting somewhere. Fortunately to my amazement it all came apart very easily. I had expected 50 years worth of fight in trying to get these parts loose.
One area that I did have trouble with, but head read it may be an issue, was the top shock bolt. Sure enough it wasnt going to come off easily. I fixed that with the welder! Hahaha Problem solved!
I lack a few in between pics, but here I have everything installed, greased, and awaiting the caliper. The drilled and slotted rotor will unfortunately not be seen behind the wheels I have, but ehhhhhhh who cares!
