im guessing the 4 bushing type things go on the upper control arms is it two of thsoe for one side and two on the other side? then the rears get the washers/bolts in that bag?


wat tools would i need in order to slap these in?

"well sir, I didn't like it"

i'm still trying to figure out exactly how those front bushings would go in... did he also tell u how 88-89's can't be pressed out... and only 90-91 upper control arms... just FYI...

get a spc kit. do it right the first time it's your suspension....

i think those bushings have studs (in the bag) that go up through the shock tower. they replace the bushings on the stock control arm

they replace the anchor bolts of the upper control arm. those have 2 set adjustments, usually 1.5 and 3 or something aroudn that.

listen to him and me , buy the spc kit . it takes about 45 minutes to install with right toolsand you have alot more adjustment . very quality piece too.

Nothing but ingalls in my cars. I like knowing that I have a tried and proven parts on my car, for the most part. Especially when it's parts that hold my suspension together. How much are they?

I have that set on my car as we speak. There is the only 2 options for camber positioning but worked awsome with my setup of a drop of 2.5inches, I also have 18inch rims. Straight as can be!

This kit is a replica of the Progress hard mount kit, and it is a very high quality kit though not adjustable. Camber in front is either +0.75 or +1.75. I chose +0.75 with a 2.25" drop to get around -1.5 degrees camber in front. It requires no special tools and installs in around 20-30 min in the front, and a little longer in the back. Any other ?s feel free to ask me!

Edit: The progress kit is high quality and I have that... however I would still hold out for a better brand since you don't know the quality of bushings in this one.
