So I'm in the process of tearing stuff down on the 70 SF to get it ready for paint. I have both front wheel wells out to get plaster and powder coated. As you know, you get a good look at stuff with them out.
And looking at it I'm now contemplating buying a kit rebuilding the front suspension. The bushings are all dry rotted, the tie rod covers are rotted and falling off. I think it's time.
Main question is, I'm used to coil springs. What do I have to worry about when I start undoing stuff? I wouldn't want anything flying off and killing me (you know, like a coil spring...).
Also open to recommendations and suggestions. I'll be going with a stock kit for this.
