Suspension Replacement Items

[ckmaggie]

I am working on replacing some wear items on my front and rear suspension and I want your thoughts. I am not looking for performance upgrades rather I want to get back to stock feel.

Here is what I will replace:
Front
- Sway Bushings
- A Arm Bushings
- Ball Joints
- Turbo Tie Rods

Rear
- Sway bar bushings

I have read that I need only replace the sprig plate bushings if they are badly worn. I have not looked closely at these yet but I want opinions. Car has 91k. Shocks have been recently changed but other items are stock.

You will want to replace the spring plate bushings. After all this time they are deformed and are essentially dead.

The while you're in there list goes like this:
= Repack steering rack
= Repack rear axles
= Bananna arm bushings
= Bump steer kit? (depends on height you set car to)

new top camber plates -- basicly replace every piece of rubber in the suspension

Don't forget new brake hoses
