Front Suspension

Front suspension is in and it's nothing if not colorful. It should also provide some serious roadholding ability. Elephant Racing bearings are used at all pivot points creating a solid foundation for future  upgrades (as soon as the looming deadline is passed).   Right now, the Boge struts are equipped with Bilstein sports.  These will soon be swapped out for raised spindle struts.

Ready to start.  PolyBronze control arm bearings have already been installed in the freshly re-plated mounts.

Hollow sway bar is in.  Not only are they light in weight, these bars are a work of art to look at.  The quality of the hardware is obvious and with continuous adjustment they enable the suspension to be precisely dialed in.

Upgrade to aluminum cross member saves a few precious pounds.  Re-plated control arm mounts are visible.  Steering rack was re-greased.

Monoball cartridges are installed in the re-plated camber plates.  Fresh ball joints and turbo tie rods tighten everything up.

Fresh wheel bearings and rotors are installed.

Bilstein sport shocks are installed along with 22mm Sander hollow torsion bars.  

Triangulated strut brace still needs to be installed along with brake calipers and lines. You can see the wiring harness beginning to re-emerge.
