Rear Endlinks completed today pics inside..
Well, i was bored, so i went ahead and installed the rear endlinks...
I used my 3" air cut off on this project..made it a bit easier..
The bushing cuts through like butter
Also did a tire rotation at the same time, which then led to a good cleaning of the inner wheels themselves..wow..talk about caked on goodness!
Left rear, already out
Shiney new parts!
Right Rear
I love the smell of cooked rubber in the afternoon!
RIP
Ohhh yeah!
Cleaned up the drums really well..didnt have any black paint..but i had some duplicolor rust into primer stuff..used that..and hi temp clear
Purdied up
Job well done, took it for a good drive, and i mean a GOOD drive hehe..
Handles WAY better, the *** end doesnt dive anymore...you can compare this to installing new struts..cause it sure tightens it up nicely

Yeah i did the front ones last weekend..hehe and ofcourse being 4 wheel independent, they compliment each other perfectly.
All the shat that was inside of the wheels, well..weight reduction
I like rear drums, no brake dust, and usually they last the life of the car, unles u do alot of ebrake stops.

Your posts are really making me want to spring for a set of those, I think theyd compliment my existing mods quite nicely, in fact I almost bought some when I bought my kit, but I was kinda financially limited at the time as it was...Ill probably end up with some at some point though.
Right now im saving for that FWI...I need to stay focused on that
