Hey guys,

Im gettin ready to do a complete repair and replacement job on my T2....consisting of all tie-rod ends, ball joints, bushings, and whatever else that i see that needs to be changed...my question is which components do i go with....do i go with oem parts or with aftermarket parts......im not made of money but im not a cheap *** when it comes to my car.....i believe in doin things once. Any ideas or suggestions will be helpful and appreciated.....thnx

 

Personally I'd check out aftermarket suppliers. Somebody makes them for Mazda, so I'm sure a quality aftermarket would be ok. I haven't needed any front end parts, but possibly the aftermarket may come with grease fittings. I know in the past (domestic) when I've replaced a "sealed" part from the factory, they do have grease fittings.
Worth some looking into.

 

well since you own an FC and not an FD i have two words for you, ENERGY SUSPENSION. they dont make anything for me, but you will love what they have for you.

Thnx...do u know of sites or whatever else where and what i'd be able to get.....

 

well there is www.energysuspension.com i think that is it. you would be best off(price wise) to go through www.summit.com as they are like 100.00 cheaper at the least. give them a try and get that beast handling.
