Yesterday was delivery day for most of the parts. More evidence that these cars are 80% rubber - all of this is "replace old rubber parts", no performance upgrades at all. Here's what we're looking at for the rest of the project:
1. Tie rods (both boots torn) and tie rod boots (one torn)
2. Motor and transmission mounts (all cracked and broken)
3. Front drop links (right side broken)
4. Front control arm bushings (worn out and cracked)
5. Shifter rebuild kit, new shift pins, and clutch hose
6. Driveshaft rubber - giubo, center carrier bushing, centering bushing
7. Differential seals and CV boots (all are leaking and/or starting to crack)
8. Rear suspension bushings/ball joints (10 total)
9. New fuel filter (not shown: new fuel hose)
10. Differential bushings (3 total)
11. Subframe bushings (4 total)
