    sorry (I was a bit sick and...out of it...yesterday) I meant the lower control arms...An impact wrench made those ball joints pretty easy to remove for me.

    FFIM on the cheap(ish)

    Nope, I am far from dropping the engine back in my car. If there are questions about fitment, take a look at the difference in length of the intake runners (7m top, 2jz bottom) With the adapter installed, the side profile (looking into the tb side of the 2jz) is nearly identical as well.

    My restoration project - Rusty 89

    there were alot of broken bolts when I disassembled areas exposed to the elements - I then learned to soak every bolt I removed in liquid wrench, and had a lot more success.
