The condition of the powdercoat on the front wishbones has been another aesthetic annoyance since I decided to change the front calipers.
The front lower arm is pictured.
You can probably deduce that; since I have removed it from the car and removed the lower bearing, I intend to get it cleaned up.
So, the wishbones have all been removed* and whisked off to the powdercoaters.

*The removal was hampered by one bolt that remained unmoved by all the usual methods. It eventually had to have both ends of the bolt cut off and carefully extracted from the mount. The bolt had completely seized within the suspension bush crush tube.
