It sounds great when i start it up every other week, LOL.

It's waiting on jackstands for me to plate the frame, drop the new axle in it, fix the leak ( i think the water pump is faulty), get it aligned, and e-tested/plated. Going to take some time off work this spring to get it back together... bought a house and was just too busy last year. I told my dad it will only go to my place under it's own power, and he wants it out! A bit of motivation to get r' done. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I will be posting updates soon.

Here is what i did on it last year (spent a loooong time waiting for parts / etc... ugh)..

Got some pics now,

Spindle on the ground... upper BJ came out easy with the right tool (thank you partsource for free puller rentals, note: do not get the "big" balljoint kit, get the "front end service kit (#3 i believe), it has everything you need. The lower balljoint was seized in the spindle and i had to use a puller to "push" it out... (2-jaw 6" PA special).

Buddy wrenching off the control arm bolts... this is the one that was seized... neighbour came and helped me torch it out....

So we heated up the bushings with a torch and popped the ends off. Then i used the puller again to push the sleeve through
