    Replacing control arm bushings

    Finally working on the Buick some more. The rear end is out. What's the easiest way to replace the bushings in the control arms? Do they need to be pressed in/out?

    Buick with plate "WICKED T" in Orange Park/Middleburg?

    Raced this guy last night. I was in the TA on my way back from the track with my drags and skinnies on. He had 2 or 3 passengers. We went from a stop and I took him like a civic. Then we went from a low roll and he got ahead on the start but I came back and passed him. 3 or 4 carlengths by the...

    Removing rear end

    I'm dropping the rear end out of the car tomorrow. What do I need to remove first, the shocks or the control arms? Which one is actually holding the thing up? Anything else I need to be concerned with when doing this? Thanks :)

    First up on the Buick project: suspension - where to begin?

I've found that BMR sells some upper and lower control arms ( http://www.bmrfabrication.com/G-Body.htm ). What is the...

With your replies keep in mind that I got the car just a few days ago and this is all pretty much a learning experience for me. I don't know much about the...

    Where to get misc bolts, screws, and nuts

    Alright, so I got this car (in sig) which was partially disassembled. All the accessories (power steering pump, ac, etc) are taken off and the headers are unbolted. Also most of the hoses and vacuum lines have been removed. I got a big pile of bolts and screws, but I don't have a clue which ones...
