parts needed

spdkilz02 · 07-15-2005

I was wondering if anyone has the upper and lower control arm and the shock tower that is in the middle of it for the passenger side of a GT?

thanks,

adam

PS... pretty soon i should just find a parts car to have in case i need anything else.

I pulled the shock tower stuff out of the other car today A arms are easy, I need to get a weight tonight for Jeff and we can go from there. I can go get more as needed, cross member with towers right?

so u have both sides? does it still have the shock tower, that runs in between the upper and lower control arms. the cross member, is that where the leaf spring goes through? i guess if i could get ahold of the whole front end i could use it, cuz i just found out that the car was hit in the passenger side and it smashed everything up and that i way it is all messed up.

thanks,

adam

Adam, you need to run a search for front end rebuild. You'll see the crossmember has both shock towers welded to it. Also before you start messing with the front end, read all the threads of the front end. That spring is very dangerous and requires knowledge and proper tools to work on it. You just can't go in there and start taking out bolts. If you remove the upper A-arm, lower A-arm, or spring eye bolts without proper support of the spring, you could be severely hurt and/or cause damage to the car. That is one area everyone on the site gives due respect.

yeah, my dad would do it for me, he owns an automotive shop and has all the tools to do it right. i would never think of doing it myself

I hAVE a complete front suspension assembly and would be glad to sell it. I am closer than Colorado to you, being in SW Missouri. Price? I dunno but reasonable.
