Presumably the advertising they bombard you with doesn't pay enough for a free service. I'm not paying them $400 though, so we'll have to manage without each other......whatever.
Here's an experiment with Imgur

And Postimg



I'm cleaning and inspecting parts taken from the '93 to see what can be cleaned, refinished and re-used, and what needs replacement.

I'm also finding plenty of dodgy engineering practise.

These are the spherical bearings at the swing arm end of the suspension wishbone. The one on the left is seized solid. The other one has about 1mm of free play up and down, despite someone's attempt to tighten the bronze lining with several blows from a punch.

New ones shall be ordered.
