    Anyone Try these Ebay Suspension Kits?

    Hi,

    I've read about the problems people have with cheap suspension rebuild kits - has anyone tried these?

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUSPE...item1e594b17b6

    or

    the Honda stuff is very expensive , but I only want to keep the car running another 5 years or so.

    Thanks,

    David

    Chinese junk. You will probably get 5 years out of it though... Be sure not to use the upper control arm bushings and sleeve that comes with the kit. Use a stock sleeve (used is fine) and only honda/moog/three-five/raybestos UCA bushings. Your best bet is to buy from rockauto.com. Their prices are pretty decent and they usually have closeouts on half of the stuff you need. Stay away from beck/arnley and and other no-name brands, the quality is the same as the crap sold on ebay.

    Rockauto is your best bet. Better to do it right the first time, then to do it over.
