Rear Suspension Overhaul & Upgrade! Opel Manta A [EP. 7]

Welcome back to the Opel Manta A suspension project! In this long-awaited episode, I finish freshening up and reassembling the rear suspension & drivetrain components. This required a lot of cleanup, as well as some minor modifications. New springs and shocks and bushings all around should make for a much better ride!
