What's welded on to the trailing arm piece?

What's welded on to the trailing arm piece?

Wondering same. Sway bar attachment?

Wondering same. Sway bar attachment?

my guess would be a pickup pad for easier/damage-free lifting the car

[Chris Pomares]

You are correct. The remaining anodizing will be removed, then the parts will get cleaned up before it gets reanodized.

I did some test fitting of a new fuel filter. It will all come off as I’m replacing my 19 mm master cylinder and front lines with a 20.2 mm master.

Since the engine is out I had the alternator serviced along with a few other items. Here are the 4 titanium valves after 18,500 miles. I removed the rubber grommet in the picture. The white specs are from a thick paper towel .

I took off my 19 mm master and am going to try a 20.2 mm master from a 1990 ish Golf. They also use a 22.2 mm master but I think it's too big for my aplication. I run 4 piston Boxster calipers up front and 42 mm 2 piston ATE's in the rear. If I ran Boxster's on all 4 corners I would have picked the 22.2's.
I also made a couple front brake lines.

[Chris Pomares]

I had some new rear caliper brackets made to better locate the rear calipers.

The car is slowly going back together. I hope to have it running in about 10 days. I'm trying to tighten up the top of the bilstein struts. I wish there was a hole for a alan head tool. No such luck. I refuse to use channel locks! I'll have my welder alter this tool to fit if I can't find a proper tool.

I wish there was a way to rotate these pictures.
