I need to repalce some front end parts on my 1983 244 Turbo. The car needs new inner tie rods. I was thinking about just doing the outer one's while the car was appart. It will also need new ball joints and also sway bar bushings. These needs leave me to a couple of questions. What brands of replament parts should I obtain? How much of this work do you think that I can do my self? Can I just pull the car in my grage and put it on jack stands and repalce this stuff with basic tools and then take it to an allignment shop? Also, should I repalce the entire rack on the car, as the car has over 150k on it? Thanks for any information and happy bricking? Also, should I go with stock sway bar bushings or the IPD ones?
