9/6 - Figured I'd take a look at the rear mounts after ordering the fronts and rears just to be on the safe side.. Found the reason I kept hearing a little rattle when I'd drive from the back.. Turns out that one of them were blown and had tons of play. 

9/7 - Cleaned up the shocks with some steel wool and soap, Also took a couple side by side shots of the front bearings for shits and giggles. I believe the bearings are the original factory ones with 280mi+ on them due to the "88" stamp but I could be wrong. 

Left side is the cleaned up one..

Finally got my passenger fender back from my buddy dave... 

Early fender (top) v.s. Late fender (bottom) //// Had to trim it up a little bit in order to make it fit..

Also took off the drivers side to shave it down a little to fit a bit more flush.. While I was in there I got some undercoating and went to town on the all the wheel wells. 

Changed out the broken hood latch for a new one...

Went ahead and started the front brake pads + rotors...
