Yes as the title implies it's raining yet again and me with no Z to go have fun with. Oh well it's worth it. Matt installed all of the Techno Toys suspension goodies on his Z (control arms, tension rods, and trailing arms) so all the polyurethane bushings he got are all pointless which is a plus for me. So I got the rears from him thinking that the fronts were gone (they had been pulled over a week ago), but it turns out that they were just hiding..hmmm(Quang hid them). I was just going to clean up and install his control arms since the front bushings were already in but upon seeing the condition of mine which were much better I decided to use mine and get the bushing out of his. Less than five minutes later the bushings were out and Matt's old arms were in the trash. Moving on to my Z, I made quick work of pulling the suspension apart and prepping it for the new bushing and a much needed paint job here it is, I will re-install it tomorrow after I purchase new hardware since the old stuff is about due to be replaced.
