Hey guys,
Spent some time in the shop today working on my 98, and figured I would share a little information to save some money for ya. Although this has been talked about before, you can buy Upper A arms from a 97 T bird that will work perfectly on the mark with a little modification.
The height sensor mount needs to be cut off of the old arm, and welded to the new one. I was able to save almost 25 bucks per side, which is never a bad thing. I figure that if you have the stuff there to do it, it's almost retarded not to go this route.
Also while I had it on the rack, I replaced the tierods, lower ball joints, and had it re-aligned. Here are some pics to show what I was talking about on the height mounts. The car now drives almost flawlessly, and WILL be flawless after I replace the two effed up tires that were on the front.
Take care guys
Mike
