    Ok guys, as many of you may know, I had a little accident involving a gutter and a tree.

    I have sourced all of the body panels, but now I'm after suspension components.
    While I'm changing it all, i figure I may as well do both sides as well as upgrade to adjustable tension rods and shit..

    I need
    • Inner tie rods
    • Tension rods
    • Lower control arm
    • Crossmember

    Here is what I have in mind so far.

    Any recommendations on what I should change? Keeping in mind that I am on a fairly limited budget?

    I have a set of brand new Megan racing heavy duty tension rods. Also a set of lower control arms with ball joints if you want em. Same as these.

    I would think the cross member could be repaired in situ rather than removing it. Its a PITA job pulling it out. the inner mountng ears for the lower arm are not all that special. I assume you ripped them?


    Have a look on Ebay for inner tie rods. They are not that expensive

    It is where the lower control arm bolts to it.

    How much for the tension rods and lower control arms?
    do you have pics of the lower control arms?

    As for the cross member, I might have access to 2 hoists, and an engine crane, so I was thinking of hosting a tech weekend in about a months time once all my parts are collected and getting into it.

    I'm guessing those inner tie rods would be alright? You wouldn't be suggesting them otherwise
