Day 4

Today I completed the front suspension. Here is the spindle attached to the bottom control arm with the top arm temporarily zipped up so as not to get in the way:

Both arms with the hub attached. Big thanks to European Auto Tech for lending me the 36mm socket to screw the hub nut on:

All torqued down and ready for the steering rack:

Which dropped in easily, but the threads on the tie rod ends were rough and we fought it for a few hours trying to get the alignment as close as possible:

Attached the rotor and calipers to both sides, as well as the brake lines leading to the engine compartment:

Passenger side complete as well:

Driver side done:

Other than torquing a few bolts on the steering rack, the front suspension is done! The pedals and master cylinders will be here tomorrow. Expect another video of that assembly. Till then...
