got my ball joints installed and replaced my lower control arm bushings from LPD yesterday.... got it aligned today which fixed my rubbing issues. now, it only rubs on "special occasions!". thanks to remolexi for a job well done. will post pics with the new stance when i get the chance. i like how the car rides now!:D

thanks! glad you like my work!

predrag, installing new balljoints and busings alone will run you $175 plus parts. you do need bushings very badly and im sure your balljoints are shot as well. it would be cheaper to get lowering springs, balljoints and bushings done all at once. $300 is my price for the labor. I can get you prices for parts as well as order them,

Febi-Bilstien balljoints $90 (pair)
LPD auto polyurathane bushings $100 approx. (highly recommend), contact LPDauto.

and of coarse your choice of springs.

let me know. :)

:( just let me know when you're ready, he's not in a hurry to sell. he just got a clk black series so the c43 is just parked and is seldom used to keep the mileage low. ;)
