steering woes!

[Ace$nyper]

well i just got back from an unseceful allgienment I was told the tie rods, ball joints and wheel bearing are shot.
What kinda costs am i looking to fix this *being if thats whats wrong I'm more then happy to hear what else it may be*

Is there a aftermarket way to not only fix but also improve them? I am getting a b16 swap in real soon and the car is drivable would just doing swap help? *being new axles and all that*

I just would like my car back to steering nice.

TIA!

tie rods (inner and outter, both sides) = around $150
Ball joints (upper and lower) = around $200
Wheel bearings= around $20

a couple hours to replace.

No aftermarket to improve, nothing to improve really. new axels wont help any.

well I can get a huge hook up so parts will be alot cheaper is there anyway a DIYer could do this or should i shop it?
Will getting a camber kit be good idea at this time if so what kind?
thanks again

you can do it all except the ball joints, they are pressed in (I'm assuming you dont have a press). You could take your control arm to a shop and they would press it in for probably less than 10 bucks for both. tie rods are simple, As are wheel bearings. Yeah now would be a great time to invest in a camber kit sence it will all be tore apart down there anyways. Enguls is a good kit, I think it replaces the top ball joint, not 100% on that though. Shure you could look at there website and see (or wait a few minutes and someone else might know.

Max, if your upper ball joints are shot, i got a SPC Balljoint replacement camber kit that im looking to sell if your interested. Its adjustable up to 3 degrees. It replaces your stock front upper balljoints.

Pm me if interested

You can remove the pressed ball joints. Hammer + torch = easy. Took me about 10 minutes after I got the UCA off. Even did the first one without a torch. After I got it aligned, it has worked perfectly.
