Didn't get a whole lot done today, I spent most of my morning unsticking a guide pin from the caliper. It was missing the rubber boot and just got contaminated and finally rusted tight. Ordered a new caliper boot from oreilly (I had a gift card it was 5.49). I have new rotors in the garage. I'm debating on weather or not to use them or just keep the slotted and drilled ones it came with. They still seem pretty flat and have no ridges or anything.

Also removed the seats and will dig in tomorrow and give her an interior spit and shine. The previous owner had cut all of the rear seat belts. The pile in the picture link is the remnants. Looks like she just became a two seater for now.

more to come.

Finished rear brakes today on both sides, power washed under carriage and wheel wells (I think the P.O. lived on a dirt road) also painted the wheel wells with some truck bedliner I had left over from an old project. Came out looking pretty good. Kyb bump stops and boots should be here tomorrow, decided to stick with the cross drilled rotors.

Also, shampooed interior, it needs another go round but the cat piss smell is much more understated now lol.

At least all of your hardware comes out looking clean!

Little elbow grease never hurt anyone eh?

Can anybody identify that these are original turbo control arms?

The superpro bushings I got look like the ones for hyundai control arms:

Hard to see in the picture but they are square with rounded corners (I don't want to open it because I might have to send it back), the stock control arm bushings are clearly round.

The sway bar endlink bushings are wrong too:

The stock endlinks look like this:

Do I just need a set of hyundai control arms to run these poly bushings? Or am I SOL.
