After a camping trip in the mountains for several days, I eased back into the front suspension rebuild. But only after watching my Ducks defeat the Buckeyes.
Not a ton of progress but I did manage to mount the new bump stops and get the front dampers installed. I couldn’t find the old bump stops and spacers from my wrecked ‘70 crossmember. I can’t imagine that I tossed them when I stripped it down for media blasting and powder coating but they were nowhere to be found so I had to remove them off the crossmember that I dropped out of the GT. I had new bump stops but needed the spacers. I wish I would have marked them when I removed them as I didn’t realize that they had to be oriented a certain way.
Hopefully I’ll make more headway tomorrow.

Cleaned, flushed, refilled, painted and ready to install.
