Thanks!

How many K's on the car?
Have the Control arms been replaced?
There's Nima here on the borards, he is selling new control arms (which have new ball joints installed) for $105 i think. But if your anywhere near high k's and the control arms have not been done, I recomend that. Chances are your bushings are close to shot.
