Prep Work For Arse-Freeze Apalooza

Torch and I restarted the work on the Z for Arse-Freeze today.  A few repairs occurred, but most of the work was focused on looking for troubles.  Besides the normal fender pushins, flat spotted rubber, and that distinct burn oil smell there where a few new unique problems.  The picture below shows some of the troubles:

  • Bend Wheel Stud
  • Sheared wheel stud on both rear wheels
  • Loose Half-shaft bolts
  • Cracked steal breakline 
  • Brake pad detached from backing plate



Needless to say we have some work to do. Here is the punch list as I know it today:
