Hi guys,

I just purchased an S14 and drove it around today..it's deffinately a fix-er-upper...


and it's feeling pretty wooly and clunky and squeaky suspension wise,

so I'd like to do a complete refresh...and order everything at once..

I'm looking at:

energy suspension master kit,
diff bushings
subframe bushings
suspension arm package (ISIS or other brands)
Tie Rod ends


is there anything else that I should look at while I'm at it?


Thanks

If it has stock tension rods, look at the bushing end where it bolts to the frame. If you see an oily substance around the bushing, you should replace them. Either way, it's only a matter of time before they blow out anyway, so keep them in mind...

the tension rods are part of the "suspension arm kit"

which consists of:

*Front Tension Rods
*Rear Upper Control Arms
*Rear Traction Links
*Rear Toe Links

Alright, wasn't sure and wanted to point it out. Most suspension arm "packages" only cover of the rear of the car...
