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

Just finished with my front end rebuild and it was def an experience. Had a shop press out/in lower control arm bushings and when I picked one up by the pivot shaft it promptly fell out. Had to take to and old shop in town who knew what they were doing and finally got them sorted out. I've been surprised by the lack of knowledge at shops, part stores, etc on these cars. I was pleased that with some elbow grease and paint even the worst looking parts ended up looking good.

Couple more before and after pics. Glad to be done with the front suspension and now on to the brake lines!
