    Last year's 308 accident really did a number on all the rubber suspension bushings. Parts were disintegrating after having been shifted from the impact. The body shop replaced the shocks & such, but didn't do the bushings.
    So I asked Steve if he could replace them.
    He did a phenomenal job.
    Without asking, he manufactured some pins that were NLA, did a great job straightening some brackets for the sway bar (think blacksmith type work) and even painted the components as he pulled them to put the bushings on.

    And the ride! Last night going home the car was amazinginly quiet and tracked incredibly well. No more porpoising over consecutive bumps.

    Another great job by Steve!

    Just sorry we couldn't squeeze the Merci motor into the 308. Stupid transmission.
