Looks like a good deal. But shipping is pretty steep making it back to a normal deal :p

It doesn't look like the control arm bushing are included. That would add to the cost as well.

the front end of the car is starting to get wore out, the cv boots are cracked open and sprayed grease everywhere and there is practically no rubber left on ball joints. I figured i would just redo it all.

Better get to it before the lca falls out.

The jy charged me $35 for two lca's....

Quick question about cv joints. The boot is ripped. Is it possible to just replace the boot or would i be better off just getting a new cv joint. At above 60 mph the car starts to vibrate. I read it could be because of these joints but they are not clicking yet. Tires were just balanced alignment is decent.

Id replace the axle.

If no clicking, you MIGHT get away with replacing the boot, if you know how. Generally speaking, replacing the axle at about $70 is a better option, since you have to take the thing out already.

I would say this was a good deal, including shipping cost, IF, I repeat, IF, the parts are comparable to US quality.

Interested in being a guinea pig for the forum? At 1 bill, you could do worse.....and we would all appreciate the heads up

so my parts just came in, i opted for this instead because it came with all new bolts.
