What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[Team Lightning]

I just replaced both LCA's along with the sway bar to LCA bushings with Moog parts. I replaced all 4 struts with KYB's, new coil over springs, Energy Suspension bushings on the front of the sway bar.

Too bad you won't treat it to some cleaner doors ^_^

Washed it.

Oh great... Lovely. Autozone control arms are Dorman with a Duralast sticker slapped over the Dorman sticker.

I installed Dorman control arms from rockauto earlier this year. I will just have to be mindful of them now. But heck, the ones I pulled off the car were Dorman as well, and they were on the car for a while because they were the ones that were on the car when I bought it.

I'll just be sure to put some quality ones on when these eventually fail.

Ugg. I bought AZ last year because Bank of america was giving 10% cash back. His car needed LCA's, and so did mine, so I put them all on my car, and he paid me for putting them on his by paying for mine. He only has about 5K on his, I have over twice that much on mine.

The kicker? I am hoping they are getting better! They have a lifetime warranty, and I am about to run them in now.

Yeah, Dormans have the Limited Lifetime as well. But thing is, you can't exactly return them without paying to ship them, then you have to wait, and the car is just going to be out of commission while you wait. I'll just order the Moog LCAs from rockauto once I see the Dormans getting bad. At least then I can just use the Dorman bushings on the MOOG LCAs since they haven't been on there long enough to need replacing.

The good thing about AZ was I just drove down and swapped them out. Dude pulled on the ball joint to see how loose it was, and it came apart in his hand.

:eeeeeek:

Imma order in some Moogs soon to have on hand, my tie rod ends are already Moog.

I quit finally being stupid about the steering issue, fixed it and drove the s### out of it.

Want to buy these, any chance they'll fit a stock 91 http://austin.craigslist.org/pts/4654649169.html

Festiva stock bolt pattern is 4x114.3. According to the ad, they are dual pattern and should fit. I believe there is at least one person on here with those wheels on their car. Maybe they will add their opinion to this.

Yes I have the same exact wheels, and with good rubber. $275 is a great deal! I paid $280 for my set, brand new, no tires. Make sure you get the hub rings that came with those wheels so they are centered to the hub when you go to install them.
