A Arm rebuild question
I'm looking to rebuild my A Arms on my 87 944 and I'm having a hard time finding all the parts I need. Any advive on parts and procedures are welcome. Thanks in advance.

Balljoint kits are available from Rennbay. http://www.rennbay.com/
I highly recommend getting the track kit with the solid upper bushings. I personally feel the standard bushings are not the best and had some issues with them. The solid bushings are more forgiving of a slightly worn out balljoint pocket, which is very likely. For the bushings, OEM rubber bushings are available for the front or the Weltmeister reds. Either are good options.. i would just get the OEM rubber.. and the only option for the rear is the updated 968 caster block which is a great upgrade.

What about the rubber bushings on the piece that connects to the crossmember? Couldn't find those anywhere.

I just rebuilt my ball joints on my 951 yesterday using the rennbay kit and it was easy. Suprisingly easy.
