New front control arms - what a difference! 850

posted by  someone claiming to be jeffery47 on  Tue Jan 20 04:59 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Since my garage is full, my 850 sits outside. I wanted to do it myself, but it's really cold here in Michigan right now (10 degrees). I didn't want to re-create an Eastern Front type of WW2 tank repair situation, so I took it to Swedish Engineering. Out the door, including a parking brake adjustment, was about $550 or so. The parts were about 125 each, and I had a 4 wheel alignment done too. I saw the parts on ebay, but with the winter weather, I had to bite the bullet on this one. Overall, though, I am happy with the repair and the price was reasonable, too.
