Thread: WTB: suspension

    Default WTB: suspension

    Looking to buy some still-functioning used suspension for a 1996 NA. Ideally, koni's or biltsitiens, but would also consider AGX or even NB suspension. Basically, I need to improve the cars ride and handling from current blown shocks and keep it TCB-friendly. Rebuild is an option if you have blown/leaking konis or biltstiens.

    Also on the prowl for larger than oem sway bars and a manual steering rack, again TCB.

    Define TCB - a brand new manual steering rack is only ~$200 from Mazdacomp. Or at least it was when I replaced the rack on my '99 Sport.

    $100 is TCB for the rack, but that's good to know that the mazdacomp is that affordable.

    Don't know if this helps you, but I have the stock front sway from my 2000 sitting in my garage. It's free if you want it, let me know and I'll bring it to Crandall on sunday.

    I think I've got the front sway taken care of, thanks all. I'm still hunting for the rest. :)

    just be sure the 1.6 car front bar fits a 1.8 car

    I don't know if it does

    Well, looks like the 1.6 bar may not work. I guess the ends are at a different angle?

    Blackzx3, I'll take you up on your front bar at Crandall. Thanks!
