To begin with I'm only interested in replacing the worn out front end parts on my 91 RS so that my steering behaves like it is supposed to. I'm not after a high end performance rebuild for track use etc... Something that works as good or marginally better than stock and will hold up for 3-4 years. With that said I have looked at a couple of what I believe to be complete kits although the parts included in each differ.

I've looked at the Spohn kit and the PST kit. The Spohn kit includes the idler arm with bushings/ ball joints, centerlink, inner/ outer control arms w/ bushings/ ball joints etc... and the PST kit only includes the bushings/ ball joints and control arms (outer only I think). Do I need to replace the idler arm, and centerlink or will new joints and bushings in the factory pieces do the same thing? Are there any other kits out there that I should consider?

Thanks.

 

You might also want to look at PSC...performance suspension components (www.performancesuspension.com)....Someone correct me if im wrong but I beleive that a lot of people on this site recommend PSC over PST. They say PSC has better quailty parts. Check them out.

 

Checked out the PCS stuff. Still can't tell which is the better overall package. Does anyone know what the PSC stuff costs compared to PST?

 

Like you I was between Spohn and PST, but didn't hear good things about the PST steering kit, so I bought the PST control arm bushings and the Spohn steering and couldn't be happier. The MOOG parts are beefy and high quality.
