Been out of the saddle for too long working on other automotive projects, but the van will be getting much needed attention now.

I noticed the front sway bar bushings on the lower control arms weren't even touching the bar, they had worn out that much. Ordered a new set from Rock Auto and torqued them to spec (24 ft lbs) now the sway bar is nice and tight again.

Seemed to take turns a little better.

Finished out the sway bar refresh with a new set of Delphi bushings for the 2 frame to bar mounts.

One day at a time and it will be done soon enough. Might sell my recent build to finance my next two projects
