WE3RX7 is on a distinguished road
Quickie update.

I went off on a tangent for a little bit working on a few T2s and another FB the last few weeks (not mine) but I've been gathering parts to keep moving w/ completing my front end.

As of right now, I've got the front suspension completely stripped off. Tomorrow I'm pulling the old steering rack and cross member.

Plans are:
-Paint upper inner fender area IBM (I have some paint left over from the engine bay) to help prevent rust.
-POR15 the lower inner fender and cross member. It'll provide a harder adhesion and not chip off from flying rocks, etc while still maintaining good protection against rust. I plan to POR15 the entire under body
-Send control arms off to have needle bearing installed
-install new tow hooks
-install MS lower c-arm brace
-install new ball joints, tie rod ends
-install angle spacer kit and adjustable bump stops
-install roll center blocks


This should all be done in the next month. Next month I plan to get the rest of the suspension in place (camber/caster plates, coilovers, etc).

Not a very exciting update, but it all needs to be done so I can start measuring for the new brake calipers and wheels.

I also picked up a set of FD rear brake calipers that I'll rebuild and swap on later.

Not much for pics this go around.
