Some are inspired. Personally, I am now having 2nd thoughts, and thinking this is beyond my capability.

The big fear on a project like this is biting off more than you can chew. Once it's disassembled into a non-roller, you can't even tow it to the shop to finish what you can't do.

At some point, I will research which smaller steps are the most realistic for the novice who is just looking to do a basic refresh a 30 year old OEM suspension.
i followed Craigs work here step by step behind him- it took me 4 weekends to do everything he did (except wheel studs, and i went tarett bars) its not that bad when you dive into it esp when you have this thread as a referance. i am so happy i took the time to learn about the suspension. it has made it a lot easer to adjust at the track and understand how it works.
good luck either way- it is a lot of work, very rewarding.
