In this video I will be installing a new front suspension on my 1981 Camaro Z28. I will be Reusing my upper and lower control arms. There is a huge problem with the upper control arm bushings ugh. Thanks for watching.

I love this 81 Z28 restoration project. I cannot wait to see when it's all done. Are you keeping it white with the blue stripes?

I just got done working on this, spent the whole day on it. It is going back to white but with the orange stripes. Just like the one I had in high school. Thanks for watching

@@RustyRatchetGarage WOW That's going to be beautiful! I can't wait to see it! What color are you going with for the interior? I find it so frustrating that you can't get colored interior parts. It's like you have to buy the default black and then paint them, you know. 🙄

Those springs are a bitch. Did a set on a ex's 79 Z28 back in 2002. Ended up cutting a coil off and mangled it in there But yeah i agree with ya aftermarket control arms on these cars are the eay to go. I ordered a set from ptfb... In November... Still waiting for them 🤨

That sucks that you are still waiting on the control arms. I hope I never have to do those springs again.

Pick a similar amplitude volume on your time lapse videos please? Adjusting the volume back up when speaking is a pain in the arse. Maybe a cordless microphone you wear would help with getting your voice up.

Thanks for the input, this is something I been trying to figure out for a month now. I just might have to do the wireless mic option.

How much do you want for those bushings? I have a 79 and I know it will need some. It’s been sitting for 23 years
