Hey all,
After finally getting back to the states I had a chance to start going through my To Do list for the teener. Well that list just got allot longer (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) THe whole front end is shot and will need a bunch of work. Anyone willing to discuss options? Replace what's there or swap out the front end? Also any tips on dropping the front end? I figure that it's easier to work on the suspension when it's out from under the car. So 2 ball joints 2 tierod ends and struts at a minimum. Yikes Attached thumbnail(s) |

I went back with stock tie rods... it's really not that expensive to do ball joints and tie rods... maybe $100 for all 4 pieces.
shop around prices, I think I got the ball joints from paragon, and the tie rods from pelican... or vice versa... I got used Konis for about 125, IIRC. but Bilstiens are fine too... if I would have had to buy new, I would have gone Bilstien for the price... Bils are fine for street cars... Paragon has good price on the poly bushinggs too... |
