Funny how I went from one end of the spectrum to the other ... I started out with a 95 Windstar - first year made and now I've got a 2003 Windstar - last year made. lol irony... and yet the same work has to be done that I did on the 95. lol
You guys are great. Thanks. I guess I just need to get the parts and go to town on it. I just don't know if I have it in me to spend a whole weekend on it and I bet it will take that or more out of me since I'm not in the greatest shape.
So, the rear shocks... nothing to it? No compression needed? Just unbolt the tire, unbolt the struts and they slide right off/on without any compression needed? The shocks easy to compress if I need to or I'm not going to need to?
I've gone front end work before on my 3000GT and I pushed the bearings out of the control arms and back into them to save money. Its amazing how much time you save once you've done something 1 time before. I think I will never do that again despite the cost of the new lower control arms on my 3000. Windstar lower control arms are considerably less in cost.
What special tools would I need to do the front end linkage work? Any you can think of ??
Whats this about lowering the subframe 2 inches to do the sway bar bushings??? You mean I have to detach the subframe from something to get them in???
