Hey i have a 91 S13 coupe and i have to replace my front wheel bearings this weekend. The car has almost 200K on the chassis and i was curious to what other cheapish parts i should replace while i have the car in the air like bushings and such. Thanks in advance!

anything that looks like it needs replacement. Cracked bushings etc. Ball joints, Tie rod ends.

full bushing kit. replace steering rack boot if they're torn. spay/brush underliner where/if needed. replace any bad looking wheel studs, replace pads/rotors if needed. flush and fill brake /clutch fluid if its not been done in forever. get s.s. brake lines/clutch lines. upgrade rotors/calipers.

most of that stuff isnt absolutely needed but will make ur car feel better and tighter, more responsive, etc.

ok yea i was looking at bushing kits and maybe replacing the ball joints. Is there anything else i should check out, like a part that is prone to breaking.
