Ugrading front end!

Well coming up on 107,000 miles so I am going to start replacing some front end parts with beefier stuff. I am getting custom Kings built up, Camburg UCAs, Heavier Duty Tie Rods along with lower ball joints. Once everything is in the fun will begin and I will post some pics.

Have you seen the readylift uni-ball tie rod ends? I might look into but I haven't heard much about. Sub'd

It is upwards of 7 bills though

Ended up going with Icon UCAs since Camburg was too slow and never got a response from them. Just waiting on my Kings to get in and Readylift tie rods to get in. Also will be painting my dash and installing some Oracle lights.

looks like good progress. burg was probably backed up quite a bit. they've really been pushing those upper arms lately. either way you'll like the outcome. love seeing guys go from "lifts" to real suspension pieces that actually work. keep us updated

Yeah, Camburg almost sent them out to me last week after I had the Icons. Called their sales department and they took care of it with no problems, so no negatives with burg just time.

Update: Kings are in, dropped it off at the shop since I went have time with work and class to do the install but I'm pumped. Pics will be up next week
