Thanks Gregg.  I'll add steering rack boot to my growing list on the front end.  At least I have a little time while my back end is at the machine shop getting new P&L's, etc.

Not to neglect the middle end, I did install Terry K's 1/2 length SS coolant lines and Ken's (Van-Again) T's for the rear heater.

Any other observations? Thank you.

Bushing discussion aside, the steering rack boot in the background looks like its toast. It's worth addressing while your actively working on suspension components. Also begs the question of the condition of the one on the other side.
