RE: How difficult - Front suspension rebuild

[62pluckedchicken@xxxxxxxxx]

The only thing I know fro sure he said was bad were the ball joints, an 
bushings.. but said when he got it apart there may be other parts that 
need to be replaced..

I just figured a kit, with most all the compentents of the front 
suspension would be best.. cheaper than buying indivually, and just get 
everyting in tip-top shape all at once..

does Bill Rolik have a website?
