I decide to change title to palsut's car 2010 project because it is almost there instead make new thread.
Anyway let see....
ZZP control arm? $500?! Wow. Not sure if it is worth it. I checked mine and feel strong. Maybe I will take Chico's advice to replace bushings only. Maybe new stock lower arm control? See pictures in below...
Thunderbat: I hope it will go smooth. I know I read lot of struts thread to make sure what to use. If it is failed. Plan A for short dog bone or Plan B Vinnie's spacer (lift engine up little bit)
Thanks 01 GT. I will take lot of pictures how was project going on.
I took her to drive around on dry road after sitting for month. It is nice to drive but geez hate cold leather seat!
Today well NONE! Still can't get darn bolts out.
I spray lot of WD-40 on my both front struts and call it for day.
The struts right side nuts are off but bolts won't go out. I guess it was rusty bad inside or whatever reason why it won't go out. I guess I need buy heavy duty hammer to knock the bolt out tomorrow morning.
The struts left side nuts are stucked. Hopefully WD-40 will reach the rust so I can get it out tomorrow morning. If it is failed then I will rent air compressor with air gun to make job easy. I know 7 years and 110,000 is awful long time to stay there. I don't really want to take it to silly labor charge.

There are lot of goodies!
I just realize that SSC springs are different. 2 small and 2 little bit big. I believe 2 little bit big belong to rear right? I just guess because rear struts are bigger than front struts.
Lower Arm control
Old struts look... yuck. Can't wait for new one.
