Here are some pictures of the lower links after they  were straighten, reinforced and painted.

All Pivot points were greased, the upper spherical bearings were clean inside
but were in need of some grease, my guess is that Honda dont use much grease
on them when they assemble them at the factory.


The 7 1/2" long bolts that run through the lower control arms were very rusted
the bolts were cleaned and a liberal amount of never seez was applied to the
length of the bolt so it will be easy to remove next time.


Next on the list of things to do.

When I lifted the front end of the Pilot up to inspect the under side 
antifreez started to run out from around the radiator cap so I will 
need to change the cap (already have a good spare) then I can 
change the tie rods PICTURE HERE  I already have a spare set
of modified tie rods painted and ready to install. Then I will check 
out the front brakes, wheel bearings and seals.
