"Something in the Orange"
Somehow we have avoided any frozen precipitation so far this winter. These last two weeks were well below freezing however and the frost was enough for the county to put out some salt. I got one last errand trip in but it is on jack stands for the winter projects now.
So the main thing I want to do is adjust the front suspension. I raised the car off of the bump stops years ago but failed to loosen the adjusters when I did. The car kinda hangs up in the air after lifting it since then. And there are a bunch of bumpers and boots and bushings to replace up front. I’m not planning on doing the LCA’s but I’ll take a look at them.
Also the front brakes are getting kinda sticky. The pads are good but they don’t seem to be releasing as much as they should. The rub is I’ve never known what they were. But I think I have a pretty good idea after the only post on FABO called help me identify my calipers seems like they have what I have. Looks like a mid ‘70’s single piston disk setup. Anyway more on all this as I get into it.
