Title: Entire suspension swap
Post by: scarr89 on 27 November 2014, 20:43

Hi,

So, I have decided to totally change out my entire suspension system, all of the bushes, new shocks, new springs, new wishbones, ball joint, track rod ends and rear beam bushes...

I am considering dealing with the brakes while I am there...A few questions...

Should I replace the entire hubs while I'm there, or will these be OK?
Should I replace all of the wheel bearings while I'm there?
Anything else I should be aware of?

Simple questions I know, but I've been building up the pieces slowly to do it all in a oner then get it trackeddd

 :smiley:

hubs should be fine, new bearings ain't a bad idea if the car is in bits and up on miles

Milage is up for sure, and I've not changed them in 3 years.
