if you happen to have the list of parts you needed to do the complete job on hand, that would be super!

Thanks for your help .
Center link...one
Steering Damper...one
left and right side Tie rod Assy...
Drag link repair kit...
Lower control arm bushing set...( regular one not repair kit) for each side...
Lower ball joints...pair
wheel bearing set with seals.....quantity 2
Uper control arms...left and right
Upper control arm bushings Qty 4
sway bar bushings...qty 4

Shocks if you need them...
inboard sway bar bushings if you need them....


You will need a proper coil spring compressor....not a rinky dink one...trust me. This is the dangerous part. IT CAN KILL YOU.

You will need a proper ball joint tool......some rental ones won't work, trust me.



You don't want the repair kit bushings...they are for cars with chassis damage...and are offset....you want the regualar ones....
