Default Q: Where to source and buy front suspension parts?

My 1996 Saleen is making lots of squeaking noises in the front end as I drive over bumps and crevasses in the road. It has 95K miles on it, been 6 years since I changed front struts. What bushings should I replace? What other front end suspension parts typically wear out and need replacing? Where should I purchase these parts? Does that red anti sway bar need bushings replaced after this many miles?

Thanks

Your best source for that is Maximum Motorsports. If you want to purchase them from us, we would gladly help you select the correct pieces you need. Also, Prothane and Energy make bushing kits.

Let us know if we can help!

Default Need shop to install bushings in Atlanta

Thanks for the info. I did order a full set of bushings from a Prothane dealer and since I live in Atlanta, Ga do you know of a decent performance shop to do the install?

I dont know anyone, my apologies. But for bushings, you should be able to have the dealership do it. They are pricey to do, but the difference is incredible.

Default Does anyone have First Hand experience doing a Full Front End bushing replacement?

Just wondered how difficult this job is? I was quoted $400 to do the full set replacement.
Are there some of the bushings that are more difficult to replace than others?
