I have a 76 2.0 (owned for 27 years) and it still has all the original stock suspension components/sway bars. The front has been squeaking for years and I’m finally ready to address the issue(s).
Without breaking the bank, what should I order/install. The car has 55k original miles and is only driven during the summer on the streets. Any advice/input greatly appreciated!!

Once you start pulling apart 27 year old suspension
The bank may get broken .

If its just the arm bushings then great
But id prepare myself for something more expensive
(While your there , you may find other things )
Brake lines .... Ball joints ....struts ....
It never ends (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)
