Built a pair of sway bar disconnects. The new brushings actually improved my handling a bit!

Just a quick note to endorse the duplicolor rim paint. I used it on a set of severely oxidized American Racing rims my son got for his Cherokee. I rubbed the rims out with scotch bright pads, shot them with self etching primer and then black in thin coats. They came out great.
