72 Duster Resurrection
Been really busy but I am still here.
Appreciate the info on the control arm stuff. That all sounds good to me. I will probably re-use my original 72 LCAs.
Parts have been arriving steadily in the mail. I now have all the parts I need to rebuild the front end and front brakes.
I removed the old master cylinder. I think it must have been leaking at its connection to the firewall based on the extra rusted paint all around and below it.
What is this thin plastic washer thing? I'm not sure if my new master cylinder came with one..
I finally won the battle with the ball joints on the draglink and got it out of the car. It was a spirited struggle with the pickle fork and sledge. I broke the ball joints then removed the pitman and idler arm.
Now I need to start cleaning everything and putting it all back in with new parts. Stay tuned.
