[QUOTE=erachner;539872]A little more progress - got the front CV's separated and cleaned up. Found a hairline crack in the steering knuckle that I'm not willing to live with. And got the steering rack preparations underway. Getting very close to being able to fully assemble the front end suspension, steering, sway bar, and brakes.

Nice catch on that crack. I'll be taking a close look at mine.

A while back, a friend of mine in Seattle sent me some pictures of 818 in progress that he came across. I bet it was yours!

The picture of the BRAT brought back memories. My first car was a 1981 Subaru 4WD wagon that I bought brand new for $6,111 out the door.
