Front suspension up-date - some good / some bad

Well - making progress on the TR6 between working on the MGA (obsentibly the wife's LBC). Time to finish degreading and prep, start paint and then putting her back together.

BUT, before I can do that I have some repair work to do on the wishbone arm bracket;

This side looks ok;

I went with gloss black powdercoating- probably a bit much. Think I'll use semi-glass black next time.

Those look great and the dirt will wash right off of then when you hit them with a hose.

Hi Paul - they just seem a bit too shiny. I'm used to having dirty/scruffy bits!

This too shall pass..........just give it time and everything else will seem dull and boring.

Simply beautiful-

You really don't need to put ANY paint
inside the bushing openings. Red wheel bearing
grease will offer more rust protection that paint.
