I hope you're right about the wheels! My new meaty tires showed up yesterday. I can't wait to get these mounted. Thanks for the recommendation Keith! I took a mental health day today from work and spent some time in the garage. Slowly but surely, I'm making some some progress. The lower control arm on the driver side is salvagable but the arm on the passenger side is pretty rusty. I can't even get the control arm shaft nut to break loose with a giant socket and breaker bar. I'm kind of at a cross roads of how to proceed. Is the additional cost justified in getting a set of tubular control arms (CPP, PB) or should I just track down a set of used lowers, or even a set of repop factory lowers? I'm open to any suggestions!
