Thanks and I am planning on changing the last few pieces that are energy to either hardrace or another company that make strictly off road race control arms. Energy makes a great product and for a street application I would use them all the way around.

I am re-doing the brake tuck a little bit to try to clear room under the dash for other items right now.

IF you get the factory style ones you will get what your looking for, the ones I have now are well not for street use. I ran the others for a year and loved them and would put them on another car if I need to replace tie rods any time in the future.

The ball joints will throw off your steering angle. so go with regular ball joints and the hard race tie rods. To keep your steering angle correct.

#313441 Well here is update for you all, my Fodo teg decided to act up again and I said fuck it so I bought a new car. Parted out the teg and sold the shell off to a buddy of mine.

But before it left I took the seats and brake setup and put it on my new DD a 95 dx coupe same color as my EX, put the front seats from the Teg into it as well. I will have to get some pics soon, she is riding high right now so I need to fix that a bit. here is the teg as she left

Image

We lost a ball joint there she looks sick slammed tucking spare wheels.
