That is quite exhaustive.. I have quite a bit to work out on the vehicle. For one the steering box that is in it right now has one thread remaining and it's quite sloppy..however I do not really know how sloppy is considered normal and what is considered inappropriate. The threads on my other steering box are showing 3/4 threads.

I also need to work out the suspension. It's a mismatch of IPD fronts and VPD rears, the left wheels scrubs on the fender at weird approach angles or under load. Not sure which shocks are on it. It does ride fairly decent for it's age. Poly bushings have been installed.

She's got 205/60R15's so quite difficult to move about until you get rolling. She tracks ok also.
