March 4, 201312 yr comment_416832 Good work Grnsky. I am sure getting the rack and steering collar bushings in were much easier with the engine out of the way. Keep the progress pics coming!

Tie rods, ball joints, steering rack boots, bushings, performance sway bar, etc. Hopefully the weather holds. Replaced the head gasket last week also.
