Upper Control harms (expensives!)
[/QUOTE]
Noticed this while I was looking at the parts book for the SL and comparing prices with the Performance Products catalog. 
Glad your happy with the ride now. Mine is still fine, but not looking forward to the replacement day for the upper control arms. Maybe someone can figure out how to replace just the ball joint. The arms don't wear out its just the ball joint and the bushings.
When Its time for this I'll probably do all the suspension. If i'm taking the thing apart I might as well rebuild everthing while I've got it apart ( I do have the sir tool coil spring compressor).

PS By the way what was the break down on the labor for this job.
