After fitting the lowering springs I took the car in for alignment but the garage said there was too much play in the bushings (125k miles on them) for him to do it properly and recommended new coffin arms and tuning forks.
I've fitted the fronts but when I've come to do the rears I've found that there's also the lower control arm with a locking plate kit on the end. My question is should I replace these as well while I'm at it or are these usually ok?
My other question is the guy recommended new bolt kits but at £95 plus vat for a pair that makes them very expensive bolts. As I'll need two sets that's quite a chunk of cash I could do without paying on top of everything else, what do people think?
Thanks
Simon
