suspension on the new90 is apart and out. Tie rods to come out next. New control arm bushings to go in, replace a couple other odds & ends, then she's back in action. Ball joints are in super good condition, thankfully. Outer driver's side CV boot is pretty fvcked, Inner passenger side CV boot is totally fvcked, so at least one axle is coming off in order to facilitate the boot R&R's.
fun stuff

i did pretty good yesterday.. inhaled burning rubber, inhaled laquer thinner fumes, inhaled paint
fumes. I wonder how many brain cells I have left. Hand flying is overrated, that's what autopilot is for
