so its time to do the upper control arm bushings, at least on the pass
side anyway.
I can't turn the radio up loud enough to drown the noise out anymore.


I know I need to do the Upper ball joints as well, but what else should
be done at the same time, if it saves in labor from having to pull it
all apart again later?


I want to have all the parts on hand when I take her in, since I can
source them so much cheaper than the local shop (and they dont mind.)


It looks like about $25 a pop for the upper control arm bushings, and 2
per side, so thats $100 bones right there. blech.
