So make the time, and make the drive. The nearest pick a part yard for me is 2 hours away. No excuse. Otherwise, it's a crap shoot. There are online junk yards, and even a few on eBay. Just search for what you want.

Yes, but keep in mind they are an inch shorter than the 96-00.



only 40 hours? need to step your game up!

Anyways to the OP. If you're that worried, call the yard and ask if they will pull the parts. otherwise, just find a day and get dirty. Or search the local forums and see what you can find.

Lol that's a good week I think I'll be up in the 60 this week and 7 days a week and I've been know to work 20 plus days straight I was being modest so calm down.
I can't help to think I'm getting shitty parts at junk yard and most of the times the wheels are off so you can't check a wheel bearing, but ya at least calling and looking can't hurt

I clocked out at 54 today and I still work tomorrow.

With junk yards you definitely run a risk, but just be careful and look around.

it definitely doesn't hurt to throw some bearings/ball joints in before you reassemble. Easier now while out of the car.

Wheel bearings aren't too expensive either.

I've been sitting on my SI conversion stuff for a while and just piecing it together when I have time. Take your time and you'll get it done.
