Please help my 82 fb
 
Have an 82 and I wanna upgrade the suspension and the brakes is there anything I can use for an easy fix?

welcome to the board. :)

what do you mean by easy fix?

if you're simply upgrading, then get a decent set of springs and struts/shocks, get some bushings, get some good tires, and rebuild your front end. that stuff adds up so it all doesn't have to be done in one shot.

well, i can probably get you started on places to look, but as far as final purchase is concerned, you'd probably be better off waiting to hear from others or maybe searching the Gen I forum.

Mazdatrix, Nopi, Racing Beat (springs, struts/shocks)

Energy Suspension (bushings - and believe it or not you can find some good stuff on Ebay. i just bought a complete bushing set for my Gen II)

Rockauto (front end parts)

Brake parts,rockauto.com
Steering parts, rockauto.com
Springs, racing beat
Shocks? Tokico is NLA, kyb next best cheap option. There are other non standard options.
I'd first spend money on new brakes and suspension bushings. She'll drive much better with just these parts, then go from there.
