No takers on the last question so I'll try again. I need the minimum rotor
thickness and the uncompressed, off the car rear spring height for an early
67 1600.

I am also curious about the benefits of urethane vs rubber bushings. The car
will not be raced or autocrossed so would I be just as well off to simply go
with stock rubber? A lot of the bushings that are coming off the car now
don't really look that bad. Also what about reusing 33 year old suspension
and steering components? The upper and lower ball joints and most of the
steering linkage seem to be fine. No slop, no dry joints, no pitting on the
shafts. Money IS an object so if I can safely reuse some pieces it will
help.
