OK, I can't do it all in the time or budget I have for the next 4 weeks, but PLEASE help me on these issues I can afford now:
1. Bilstein or Bilstein Sports? - No, Not Koni's (too pricey)- I am pretty sure sports and they say they are 1/2" lower on the sports. I can stand a 1/2" lower all around. Anything will be better than my 14-7-1972 marked Boge's on the car now! LOL! 2. Springs? - 110? 120? I do pleasure drive Orangina weekly on CA roads, mostly freeways, never RAIN, no bad roads. I just stay off them. I want less body roll on AX days - There are OLD Weltmeister 100's on them now. NO SAG even now with the original Boge's and the Weltmeister 100's - Tires are brand new Yoko 205/60-15 and they fit under the standard wells with almost 1 inch clearance precisely on all 4 corners 3. Balljoints - Lemforder or what? - Need replacing, but not loose or damaged at all - just old 4. Bushings - Elephant plastic or those Bronze ones? - How hard to install FRONTS? REARS? I hear rears are a TOTAL PITA - I have someone competent doing ALL the work. This budget looks like $850 plus labor, or am I pissing up the wrong rope? THANKS! John |
