Todays progress was more CSI on some of the front suspension after running a bunch of errands. Although one of those errands was to return my Lincoln 140 welder that was defective and never worked Now I can weld at home instead of my brothers shop

Anyways I was able to clean up and find the following today:

1) The T bars cleaned up and revealed 1 & 3 blue paint blobs, along with white (seems like grease crayon) marks on both bars close to the crossmember, along with the black drips along the length.

2) A yellow paint duab was on the middle of the sway bar.

3) A yellow paint duab was in the middle of my steering center link.

4) I found traces of orange paint on my idler castle nut.

5) On my fan I found a # on the front in white (2883215 ?? maybe ), "engine side" on the back in white, along with a stamped pentastar and #'s 46237 below it.

6) On the 2 upper front bumper to bracket bolts there is a sheet metal retaining nut on top of the nut, similar to how shocks nuts are.

Alot of cleaning, rubbing, and scrubbing done. I also started organizing what parts need to go where (powdercoater, painter, chromer, etc) an documenting the details before they do.

Thanks Dustercrazy!
