hal9e3 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Great write-up Boxer! I did a quick search on google for the part number and found them at Kastle's Korner for $39.98 (+ $9.72 for 3 day shipping). Can't wait to get them on. Chris What happened to the price? It's now $57.95. Were they running a before-XMas special? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeepFreeze2 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I wish. It would have been more entertaining than the actual truth. However, the raccoon story has already been used. I wanna be original, but what's so original about "a rock hit my windshield"? Not exciting in the least. IB*yawn*Zzzzzzzzzz. YA RLY!!! Home of +2500 useless posts!!!!

trabbic Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I agree that this will have a performance benefit, during autocross, I notice that the steering always seems to be a little slow and during abrupt (I know... abrupt is "slow" ) changes with the wheel, I would notice the wheel almost "bind up"... As long as there is NO vibration increase or Noise from this then I am going to do it... Thanks for the directions Boxer... (Mods... Move to Performance Walkthroughs?)

mlloydlgt Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Hey Jim - Do you recall how it was corrected? Is there a way I can do this myself when I do the bushings? My car has a proper all-wheel alaignment, but still pulls to the right all the time. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeepFreeze2 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 You raaaang? Best bang for the buck, instant gratification mod, IMO (at this price point). No downside to this one. Highly recommended for those who don't plan to do a great deal of suspension work or go with bigger wheels and tires. Just better steering feel. YA RLY!!! Home of +2500 useless posts!!!!
