Locobreath, You are absolutely correct! But by the time I get done with it, if it works, I will have less the 500 bucks into it. Not bad for 10 or more years of use. Maybe by then I can afford a M11. One thing I am making sure I do is not to damage the frame rails in anyway. Other then welding the IFS to it. This has turned more into a learning experiment for myself then anything. Kinda that male ego "doing it just to see if I can" thing going on. since I am swapping spindles for Monte Carlo the rotors and calipers shouldn't be a problem replacing as well as the upper ball joint. In comparing the upper and lower bushings they seem to be similar with others at the "bone yard"
