Today, the DISA repair kit and the coolant cap from German Auto Solutions arrived.
I should be able to tackle this project this weekend with the weather getting close to 60. I am also tempted to put the steering wheel back on and take her for a long drive. We'll see!

Tomorrow I am sending the wheel and boots to Mike@Coby to get some TLC. I am hoping to get this back by the end of Feb if not sooner.

Do you mind explaining to why you were needing rear controls arms?
Messaggero
Thanks gents!!
A friend of mine and I replaced the OE suspension with Bilstein Shocks and H&R Sport Springs. When taking the car to a shop to get an alignment, they stated the car (front and rear) could not be put into the sport alignment spec. Camber was too far out. I was told I needed front camber plates and rear trailing arms. I ordered the rear trailing arms and found a used set of front camber plates. The front plates were not compatible with shocks however they were able to get the rear into alignment. The front is as close as they could get to it.
In talking with regular mechanic at the time (Kelly Moss Motorsports; no alignment machine BTW), he stated the prior shop did not take enough time in getting the car set up. He told me he enjoyed doing alignments even though they did not have a rack.
I saw your post on the FB group. If you having issues with the alignment, you could get a second opinion. I learned to never trust the shop I went to for the alignment. They made me spend more money than I should have.
