that setup is garbage. get yourself a good quality setup from www.rockauto.com

 

no

 

I've used ebay suspension components on many cars including my current crx and have been pretty happy with them overall. Just inspect all of the joints before you install them!

 

Sadly those A arms and whatnot have been pretty good... =(

 

I have ebay parts. even rebuilding a single slam with a ebay kit. Plan on getting more from them. Just look them over really well and make sure that its what you ordered.

 

ebay is awesome!! I say do it.. loyal ebay customer.. **tuner on a budget** lol

 

Ebay is not that bad. You gotta know whats good to buy and what is the cheap stuff. Always check with the seller if they don't put a brand on there. Ask if they carry warranty for the part.

 

^ I only got screwed once. Ordered my hid's for my last civic, but the picture showed a LEGIT brand, but I got sent some china stuff. He had me send them back and I got the ones I wanted. Asking is better sometimes

 

I tried those ebay suspension kits on my CRX a year ago. And they all failed on me after 6 months of use. I guess it's 50/50 on those Ebay kits. So I would stay away from those ebay suspension sets. Like another member said, rockauto has good suspension products for great prices. I got my entire Moog CRX suspension from them and have had no problems. Or you can always go with OEM suspension parts.

 

thanks guys for the input, i think ill take a chanec and try the ebay kit cant go wrong for 130.00 bucks, even if they go to **** on me 130. bucks for a good year of time is better than still riding on my busted ball joints i have now not to mention the corotaed and busted tie rods and ripped axle boots and so on and so on.

 

gl. let us know the results

 

Id say go for it. 130 bucks isnt all that bad either. If you knew what retailers pay for stuff, then you'd think this is a good deal aswell.

 

I used to work in a parts store, and worked for a dealership once. TRUST me this is a FREAKIN deal. We ordered from Car-Quest all the time. that 130 would get us less than HALF that kit, and then we would double the price to make money off it. haha

 

The ALL failed on you? That does not seem even slightly realistic...

 

I just go by peoples' feedback to gauge their trustworthiness. You always take a risk when doing business with people you don't know, though.

 

im telling you from experience that this ebay kit is garbage. the price is right but it wont even last at all. i would spend double that on the moog kit anyday. to each their own.

 

yup this is true moog is a know good brand for oem replacement rockauto like he mentioned earlier carries them at a good price along with other brands that are great replacement parts.

you have to remember that the parts that you are going to replace are very important to the suspension tie-rods(toe) uper a arms and ball joints. i would not cheap out on these since they supports the hub and control alignment angels.

Plus if you get a quality kit then you wont have to worry about switching them out that often. you have to remember that oem parts lasted on the car for XXXX amount of years and those are QUALITY parts. some of the ebay parts suffer from quality control. In the end it is your money and your decision.

 

thanks everybody for your input! im not sure now what ill do now? what will a quality set up cost me about going like someone up above said moog. never hear of moog but from what they say their good. thro out a number what i might be looking at.
tie rods inner outer ball joints upper lower and sway bar bushing.

 

less than $400 shipped for everything. oem will run you more than double that.

 

x2...moog is the **** and comes with a lifetime warranty...!!!

 

Hi
buy moog for all you tierod/balljoints and just buy your swaybar bushing from energry suspension

 

When I did my suspension replacements, I listened to a lot of people saying that the eBay ones were good.... However I had to replace every single component except the inner tie rods within 6 mos. They are just made poorly...you save the money at first, but then end up shelling it out on good parts not much later. I had to replace my UCA, Outer tie rods, and lower ball joints twice the same year. NOT worth the labor time...
