Wife's a bit sloppy down under...hard to handle - HRM - 11-12-2011 03:49 PM
Lol...I need help tightening up the wife's front end.
Just drove the wife's mini for the first time in a while. I am guessing she needs LCA bushings or maybe just endlinks, but I was too lazy to put it on the lift yet. Also may have a bad bearing in the rear, it is so easy to find issues when driving another mini...
Anyway, got me thinking. With 98K I should consider upgrading her shocks while I am there. She drives 1.7 miles to work, so it is hardly needed for local drives, but I just hate her runflats/stock setup when I am in the car. So maybe I will upgrade her ride a bit.
So...what is lying around in peoples garages as far a shocks and/or springs that they want to get rid of? I am on the East coast in CT, but I know there are lots of stock shocks with low miles, or other things folks switched and have in a pile somewhere. Let me know.
Any offers will be considered. Paypal cash transfer, cash, IOU's...many funding options..your choice.
Let me know how to tight up the wife's front edn

I've got some TSW springs I had put on the 05 stock struts. I was never super thrilled with them and got the Cross stuff later. If nothing else pops up, let me know what you think they are worth. They're just sitting in the basement.
