Installed Lower Conrol Arms and a new window motor this weekend.
The driver's side window suddenly became temperamental this week, deciding stop dead periodically when going up and down. So time for a new replacement. The job wasn't too bad as the rivet locations on the inner door panel were already drilled out exposing them. drilled out the rivet and replace it with a new motor using some small bolts and nuts with the kit, and tada! Back in the power window business. Removing the reinstalling the door panel took longer than the actual swap. I took the opportunity to insulate some of the door lock mechanism that had taken to rattling when a good tune came on the radio. So now it's all buttoned up tight, working and rattle-free.
Also was finally able to find the time to replace the stock lower control arms with some tubular J&M units and some relocation bracket to correct the LCA geometry that thrown out of whack when the car was lowered. J&M LCA's use a 3 piece spherical bushing that allows the LCA to articulate when cornering, keeping both sides of the rear planted on the road in a turn, but still provides stiffness in a straight launch. Straight forward install, and by the seat-of-my-pants testing, it works well. Although more firm, ride is not noticeably more harsh than rubber bushing stock units, but in cornering, the rear feels like it is coming around with the car rather than being dragged around by the car. Launches have no wheelhop and better traction, although I still put a couple of nice strips of rubber on the road.
Thanks to Marty D of Marty's Auto Works in Longwood, FL for help on the install of both!

Thanks for the compliments man. I really like your SS! I wish I was down in Orlando, I hear the car scene is huge there. If you get a chance, check out the site Muscle Car Evolution. It's mainly Ga and Fl people on there, but it's growing.

Congrats on your awards. It's a lot of work to get her that clean.
