    Front upper control arms.

    tubular or what? If the bushings are available they're not hard to change. Torch out old bushings, put new bushings in freezer overnight, grease them and use a press to stick them in. If you don't have a press, find a shop that does. They'll pobably charge you like $20 to press bushings in.

    Help! Engine cuts out and loss of power steering when coasting / braking

    I'd look at IACV or vacuum leak. sounds like the ECU is unable to get the idle control right.

    Grinding noise when turning right

    ball jints don't rotate unless you're steering, so it's not that. They usually make clunking noises. when you turn right the weight shifts to the left side, and since it only happens when you're in the throttle it's almost certainly something in the left front. If it happened all the time...

    Grinding noise when turning right

    agreed. bearing or cv joint most likely. when you turn open diff sends power to the outer wheel.

    ABS Light

    your autozone has a scanner capable of reading anything other than powertrain? cause if so, that's a first.

    Transmission fluid

    my wife's got a high school reunion saturday (awesome fun I'll have there) and sunday is father's day, otherwise I'd come down that way and see you. mid ohio is a nice facility. I'm probably going to make the vintage racing end of this month.

    New AC compressor,still nothing..

    jump 12v to the compressor clutch. If it works, it's something in your control circuit. i'd look hard at the pressure switch. Make sure it's getting 12v. If it is, then the switch is probably bad, if it isn't, something wrong with the circuit and you'll have to trace it back to the fuseblock.

    How to make rear bumper side markers on my sedan blink...

    diodes, you needs them. but then you're into it with a relay or two as well. in short, yes, it can be done, but it's going to be a PITA because you need to have the power separated for the parking and turn circuits, otherwise your turn circuits will back feed the parking lamp circuit and...
