bushings tight, check
wheels on, check
on the ground, check
out of garage, check


well THAT was a hassle. the ES book said to not tighten any bushings until the car is on the ground, which does make sense... and i figure the only possible way to do that is set the car down on bricks before putting the wheels on.

the car was really high up on jackstands, enough to make things interesting.

my night went like this: front up, stack bricks, front down, tighten stuff, front up, bricks out, wheels on, front down, front up, bricks under tires, front down, back up, stack bricks, back down, tighten stuff, back up, bricks out, wheels on, back down, front up, bricks out, front down.

anyway the suspension is fully tight and together, we rolled it out of the garage into the driveway again. the alignment/camber is pretty far off so i need to limp it straight to have oneoffaccord do an alignment. but that will happen once its running again.

heres some pictures. excuse the rust and crappy pictures, outside of the garage is even darker and even harder to take pics.

wwwwwwBEFOREwwwwwwwwwwwwwAFTER

yeahhh i picked these because they were cleaner and more open im hoping to be trading them for a certain new set, so i figure ride em while i can.

ill probably do the interior next, this fall/winter/spring hopefully. then i need to learn how to weld and paint, THEN ill do the body... lol

its been in there for like 2 months... it didnt help that there was a table saw in the other garage spot that was used for most of that hopefully it rains soon.

Jeeze, did you see the before and after shots I think he just bought a cb that was never driven and took it's supension.

Jk, it looks awesome. Def. an inspiration to everyone else that it can be done with a little effort, time, and money
