Lots of companies making IFS packages for the car, under $2K will get you disc brakes and rack and pinion steering.... IMO the weld on a clip stuff just don't cut it.... When you have good frame rails, body supports, radiator support, etc. why cut it all off and weld on some already half worn out suspension out of a car that already had 80,000 miles of use and abuse on it.???? Another consideration is resale value....the all new IFS front suspension will easily outsell some old 'maro clip welded on......

ive looked into an ifs wich its the best option but its my first car and i would hate to mess it up lol thats the only reason, but if i let a shop do it they want = the amount ive paid for the parts so if i buy 3 grand in suspencion i need to fork out 3 grand to install and im not that wealthy enough to do that """ im i wrong 4 thinkin this way ???? 5k is my budget a year for the car ........
