drum to disc brake conversion... ... DONE pg 3 (no 56k)
lol, that's actually how the LH (driver's side) one is. I think it prevents the LCA from hitting the gas fill tube. I thought it was broken too at first.
Update:
I got the Driver's Side drum trailing arm off and the disc TA on. The trick to the "stupid control arm bolt" was to heat it with map gas (or propane) and spray it with PB blaster, then use the impact to get it off.
I have to attach run the e-brake cable into the cabin and tighten all the bolts on that side.





The passenger's side is still being a little girl, so I'll have to tackle her tomorrow.
I really hate having only 2-3 hours every other day to work on this. But thanks to my Grandma, whom is letting me borrow her Ford Taurus for the time being, I can still get to and from work (aka school (UWM))

Yes, I put the stock LCA's back on because I couldn't find ES bushings for the aftermarket ones I had. So, those are for sale, eventually.
Looks great man, i wish i had the time and oney to make ths conversion. Hopefully next spring after im married and money is better i can make this change as i love to stop well lol..
Yes, but I'm not buying brand new LCAs just for the freakin' bushings! I haven't found a place that sells replacement bushings for aftermarket LCAs. The stock ones don't fit in the aftermarkets.
