front control arms or bushings 92 7mge auto

seth959ci · 04-05-2010, 03:10 PM

hello to all, new to the forums and just acquired my first supra

a 92 5-speed 7mge. On the downside it needs the bushings mentioned in this thread, i've been looking around about the energy suspension kit and i can't seem to find what bushings are in the kit. Does the kit only include upper control arm bushings? or does it include lower ones too?

did anyone ever use the ebay ball joint kit? Im going to tackle that job here in a moment and was wondering. I heard mixed things about ebay oem parts. but at that price for 2. its worth a checking out.

have used patern parts (non genuine) quite a lot over the years and never had any probs havnt tried the kit your refering to but check his feedback and that should give you better idea if much cop or not. a lot of nongenuine parts can actually be better than dealers because they are not tied to one make or model or specific manufacturers (have been mechanic 20plus years)and are left mainly to own details ie pricing etc hope this helps eck.
