Any words of wisdom before I start my front end rebuild?

The novice who doesn't know how to support a OEM type lower arm bushing can destroy it at the press. They have distorted upper arms at the press too. Then there's which hardware should not be tightened before the suspension is at ride height positions. We've seen most every mistake that can be made. I remember one thread about lower ball joints that I never would have imagined. Yep, he found a brand new wrong way to do it.
Read, watch how to videos on YouTube, etc.., until you have a thousand dollars worth of knowledge. That's how you keep the money in your pocket.
