Got some work to do
This is a first for me in getting the car this far off the ground . I've lifted it a bit to do oil changes, but this was definitely more effort. All my "deals" off Ebay have finally collected to a point that I need to do some work. Also at a 185,000 miles some parts are ripe for relpacement.
Got a screaming deal on an insulated tunnel plate and a Bassani Xpipe.
All new front inner&outer Moog ball joints and some low mileage rear ball joints.
Its feels solid and I have redundancy at all for corners. Last thing I want is to have this thing land on my head.
I have to say, this is my first project with pneumatic tools. So far I absolutely love them. I can take my time and hopefully have some fun with this! Tomorrow I'll get a little deeper into ball joint R&R.

Looks like you have your work cut out for you. Good luck with the upgrades and stay safe under the car.
