Back at it Sunday, no pictures but I filled the diff with friction modifier & gear oil. Cleaned up all the brake parts and installed them. Installed the shocks. I also replaced the fuel hard line (tank to pump) and all the rubber too with new clamps. It was a bitch because I had to modify it to get it insatlled because the car has US Cartool subframe connectors in it.

that gonna look familiar here soon
I love Mopars so much I'm date coding the skid marks in my underwear.
Guess what ? I'm rebuilding the front suspension too -
Oh the carnage! This is the drivers lower, the passenger side isnt quite as bad. Disassembly - unfortunately I will have to buy front shocks for it. After a little clean up - Do you think this could be the original idler arm? It doesnt have any grease zerks. It is stll good too.

Yes I would say it was about due for a rebuild Jeff. C
Good time to inspect for cracks in the K frame.

Did you notice this car has a gray K-member - ive seen a few cars with 'em. Does yours?
Yay I won! I need to thank dad for helping me from the grave again, I used this sleeve from his old ball joint press to press out the upper bushings. All the suspension parts are painted black, Im' sure my dad did it back in '79 or '80. NOBODY was into factory colors/finishes back then. I'm gonna try my best to replicate the factory colors on everthing.
