Default Ebay Suspension kit - all around maintenance needed...

Hey guys,
I am looking to get a suspension kit to replace worn parts. I put on some Illuminas a few months ago, but still really need to tighten things up. I know for starters my ps upper control arm bushing is gone. I have an 89 and I think the bushing is welded and isn't replaceable. I was looking at this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...63630 for an all around replacement because I'm sure my other parts are worn after 17 years of abuse. Just wondering if anyone has used something like this or if you have any other recommendations. I think I can do cheaper if I get each part individually, but we'll see.

I don't mind spending a little extra for something better and would rather upgrade while I'm doing it if I can. I autocross so I was thinking I would get a camber kit that replaces the UCA but I can only find 92-95's that replace the UCA. Anyway, enough rambling...

Thanks for the insight...

Well I have done business with these people and I think they are great. I needed upper ball joints and AutoZone was $70ish each. Well these guys sold me a set shipped for that much. Also the parts were from Canada and it only took 4 days.
I'd do it.

Cool, thanks for the insight bud. It looks like they have just the upper control arms with ball joints for $65 plus shipping. I don't really think I'm saving that much by getting the whole "suspension package", so I think I'll just get the UCA's for now and the rest as needed.

Just purchased mine, as well as some Energy steering rack bushings. Hope to have things tightened up by Oct 1 race. Thanks guys.
