Should I do this suspension work myself or should I have the pros do it? 200 1981

posted by  someone claiming to be John S. on  Sat May 20 17:24 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Hey all, I have an '81 244. I replaced the rear shocks today, only took me an hour, it was so simple. I replaced them with Boge Turbo Shocks. Anyways I need to replace the front ball joints (lower), struts, and tie rods. Is this an easy job or is it better left to the pros? What tools would I need?

If someone has detailed instructions that would be great too. I have a haynes manual. Thanks for the help everyone.

-John
