What else should I get when doing the sr specials? Bushings, bearings etc.. If you guys could be a little specific when mentioning as I have very limited understanding of mech lingual. (For now). I know there a rubber pcs I just don't know what they're called

Thanks!

You'll want to replace the dust boots/bump stops, and there's a couple other bushings and whatnot. practically speaking, things like tension rod bushings, sway bar end links/bushings and the sway bar bracket bushings will probably need replaced, also the lower control arm bushings and ball joints should be inspected... That's just for starters...

where did you source the KYB's? The advise you just got was all spot on.

I called memory fab. I'm still a bit bummed out about the 8-10 week wait. So I've been trying to find elsewhere but I don't think it's going to happen. I think memofa is the only outlet.
