I have a 76 2.0 (owned for 27 years) and it still has all the original stock suspension components/sway bars. The front has been squeaking for years and I’m finally ready to address the issue(s).
Without breaking the bank, what should I order/install. The car has 55k original miles and is only driven during the summer on the streets. Any advice/input greatly appreciated!! |

Once you start pulling apart 27 year old suspension The bank may get broken . If its just the arm bushings then great But id prepare myself for something more expensive (While your there , you may find other things ) Brake lines .... Ball joints ....struts .... It never ends (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) |
