So I'm not an expert on suspension, but I do know that is very wrong.... I was putting the Bilsteins on and found out i need new bumpstops, which yes I know I should have gotten them anyways.

I also had some time to go over and take off some parts from his old car turned our parts car. We mostly just took off things we could have as back ups like the alternator, starter, front calipers etc.

He also has a set up MSM billies on the car with some Tein s tech springs we were going to take off and put on the green NB because all i have is the regular hard s shocks and one of them decided to blow a couple weeks ago :,). Here are the fronts below...

I only had the fronts off because we ran into a small issue with the rears. Being a car with a lot of miles and an Ohio car that was a daily it had some rust. So the suspension that hasn't been touched in the past 2 years wasn't so easy to get off. So then this happened...

Not sure where to go from here... we dont need to save the crappy control arm because after we take and/or sell the parts from it were just scrapping the shell so it just needs to roll at this point.
But of course the other side wasn't so easy either. The nut inside the LCA was spinning freely which means we obviously couldn't get that out either so for now the rears are still on until we figure out a way to get both off.

any input would be very much appreciated.
