my turning

[camarojunky74]

I own a 74 camaro. its a good straight away car but around turns i suffer. with terrible body roll. bad stance. and worn out shocks and bushings. i was wondering if if i put slightly better thatn factory better parts would it be worth all the money that is needed to do something like this. keep in mind i am only 17 but still do have 2 jobs to support myself and my car. any suggetstions?

I'm not sure how much they are, but I don't think urethane bushings cost that much. They will make ahuge difference. also you should be good with slightly better than stock shocks for a daily driver. After you do that you should get the car aligned. Just shop around on the net. You should be able to get some fairly good deals.

I just finished rebuilding the whole front suspension with KYB shocks and urethane bushings. It was pretty cheap, under $200. I'll warn ya, urethane bushings are tough to get in without a press.

Where did you get everything. That sounds like a pretty good deal on parts.

Hmmm. i would love to do this to my car in my garage .. but i do not have acess to tools like this... but even though poly urethane bushings are a big help. tahnx/. maybe theres a kit taht i can get with maybe pressed bushings,

If your careful, take your time and follow directions you can do it in your garage. Be careful in dropping the lower control arm so the spring does not pop out and hurt you. You can take the upper and lower control arms to most any machine shop and they will press out and install the new bushings and ball joints. Your tie rods, inner and outer, drag link and other parts may need replacing. If you don't know what your looking at or for, take it to a shop and get an estimate, let them show/tell you what needs replacing. While your under there, replace those brake lines. Here is a website that carries all you need.

I would put in Sub Frame Connectors. They are the single best suspension mod you can do and they are not that much $$$.
