Have you made an album of pictures as you've been updating your GXP?

I've been meaning to, just been very busy with work and life. I have done A LOT to my car since this post, however, and I will make it a point to make a post with some recent updated pictures and info. Thanks for asking!

No they weren't that hard to change out. The rear cradle needs to be dropped though.

After inspecting them, they looked fine, bushings and all. But the new links eliminated the clunk altogether so even a visual inspection isn't enough to make the determination.

It's just easier to replace them and be done with the clunk.
