It was a long fight, but eventually the car gave up and coughed up the entire suspension and all bushings :D

Some welding, a lot of money for new parts and it will be time to put it all back together. Oh, and I still have to do the engine swap work :lol:

A new infection sets in and the sickness continues. You can beat this thing rao. Just one or two more. And this looks like a good one.
