That photo has made me decide it is a job for my indie. By the time I bought the impact, rosebush tool, spring compressors, etc. I doubt I would have saved any money. Besides it is hitting 95-100 degrees every day now for next 3 months, and humid to boot.
I have the same car without the rust at 97k. Rode height is 1-1-1/2 inches low all the way around and a lot of creaking at rear suspension. So we know stuff is bad, indie says my alignment is way off as well. Everyone says you need to realign once this stuff is fixed, and ride height restored.
Can you tell me exactly what all you replaced on front and rear suspension overhauls, and what looked the worst, did you reuse your factory springs? How many miles on car when this was done? What seemed to make the biggest improvements?
