Re: [DML] My Suspension is better than Bill's

[Stephen Rice <stevedmc@xxxxxxxxx>]

The Henninger lower control arms came with new ball joints already
installed.  The NOS upper control arms came with original rubber
bushings and did not have ball joints installed.  I ordered new ball
joints from Hervey and installed them on the NOS upper control arms.
