would anyone with a garage be interested in helping me replace my control arms and a tie rod?
I am going to order all new control arms and replace one of my tie rods that is worn out. I've never done any suspension work before, and I don't have a garage to work in.
Well, I do have a small garage... but it's basically a storage locker right now... no room for the car.
Anyone? Anyone?

I also had Randy at Mintex replace mine. Just be ready to loosen the front subframe and get the PRY BARS out to get the lower rear arms out. Be carful of the passenger side with the brake lines. It is best to unlock them and move what little you can out of the way. The arms will take some serious elbow grease, some nuts and bolt almost fuse together. The nuts can strip fairly easily.
Randy will give you a good deal on the 4 lower control arm. Both Bradford and I bought all four for $500 total.
