My 95 Talon gets a new fuel tank

Well things are getting out of hand, bought the energy suspension polyurethane bushing kit since I'm going to replace the sub-frame.
Thought it would be a good idea to install those bushings on my suspension.
What was I thinking, the old bushings are a bitch to remove. I haven't even pressed a new one in and it took a good long while to remove the two old ones from the trailing arms.
Got the arms cleaned and powered coated. Now they are ready for the new bushings. But man it took some time.
Now that I've done a couple, the remaining ones will go quicker!

I had a couple of DSM's years back. Never got around to doing much with them. A little sad about it, but I have plenty of unfinished projects around the house now.
 
I see a couple of white cars here that need to sign up for the Motown Muscle Fantasy True street thread! BAD ASS!!!
 
Here are my domestic and import garage queens:

Look closely and you'll spot my Impala SS in the back ground.

All old bushings have now been removed and tossed into the trash can.
Both knuckles, cleaned, gridded out a bit to achieve ABS ring clearance and sand blasted along with the upper A-arms and mounting brackets.
All needed bolts/nuts sand blasted and tumbled are now ready for zinc plating and polishing.
The A-arms, brackets and knuckles now ready to be taped off, plugged and powered coated mirror black.
Rear end diff. housing and drive shafts cleaned and painted.

Come on get me that subframe!

This week has been crazy, getting ready for a new national certification test, so I only had time to clean and zinc the suspension hardware;

Got the energy suspension bushings installed on the rear upper a-arms and both knuckles, what a pain in the ass with out the proper installation tool!
