Serious Matter hello everyone. i finally did my brakes and rotors yesterday and when i was doing the front i notice that my tie rod are in bad condition. i also had my rear shocks go bad recently i guess due to high mileage. i am in serious need of suspension as well as steering. i wanted to ask to see if anybody know of any packages complete for suspension and front end package. i need reliable good brand. i dont think i like to lower the car but def need better ride quality. any help would be appreciated.

I believe the only parts that need to be changed to return the suspension to better than new condition are the following:
all rubber front and rear lower moog control arm bushings $100
get a new umi panhard bar w/ rod/rod or rod/poly ends $125
get new energy suspension sway bar & endlink poly bushings $60
new koni sa shocks (best upgrade) $700-800
new rack and pinion (if its sloppy) $200 re-man.
new spicer outer tie rod ends $75
new spicer lower ball joints (if worn) $50
performance/street alignment $75-150 or DIY
You don't need a package to get the car riding and handling better than new. Just cheap wear parts and Koni's.
