Where to buy suspension components
 

Since Black Dragon went out of business are there any good options other than Mazdatrix to buy suspension components for a 1980 SA? Specifically looking for tie rod ends, connector rods, idler arm, etc.

Check Rockauto

Yes, rock auto or your local autoparts store still carry the parts you mention. Moog makes a heavy duty Idler arm that is very popular and hard to beat for quality and beefiness.

Rockauto and get the Moog parts. They have grease fittings to you can keep them lubed up.

I do prefer the Moog brand parts, especially the idler arm. Its an awesome piece, though a little stiff when first installed.

T3 for a few higher end aftermarket parts. surprised no one mentioned them yet

Rock Auto for the whole front end parts.
Look at Energy Suspension Parts for polyurethane bushings.
T3 for heavily-modified/aftermarket parts.

Another thumbs up for the Moog idler arm. Rock Auto is a solid option. Atkins is too, at about the same prices as Mazdatrix. For OEM parts, take the part number and punch it into Google. Some Mazda dealerships stock these old parts, like Garden City Mazda in NYC and Jim Ellis in Atlanta. If you want upgrades over stock components, check out T3 and Racing Beat.

Can't say enough good things about all the Techno Toy Tuning parts. I have their control arms and tension rods.

Moog and Rockauto for everything else.

Techno Toy Tuning makes incredible aftermarket suspension parts like everyone has said. If you want bushings racing beat has Energy brand polyurethane suspension bushings for the FBs.

Don't overlook Amazon.com when sourcing parts, especially if your a prime member with free two-day shipping. Many aftermarket vendors also use the Amazon.com platform when selling their parts and you can even find some deals. I picked-up a Wells TPS for my 85 GSL-SE that lists for $254.76 for $27.54 last year on Amazon.
