hi all. getting ready to start rebuilding the sloppy front end on my 73 2.0. seems straight forward enough, so i figure it should only take 4 or 5 months to complete.
i am ordering lemfoerder turbo tie rods and ball joints, then a pair of rebuilt calipers from eric shea. what type of front shocks should i buy. kyb or bilstein? boge may be out of my budget. what are your thoughts. also what bushings, nuts, spacers or other little crap should i get in house to avoid the weeks of waiting in shipping hell for a bolt or pin i may have missed? this is a street car. no racing or auto cross. thanks in advance for all the dumbass questions this project will no doubt create (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) |
