Message	this cost me about $85 for the NA ES bushings, bolts, Ebay toe arms(probally crap but we will see). the hicas eliminator is simply part of the old struts that i sawzalled off. installed not much else to say except this is a cheap alternative to other kits that dont eliminate the balljoint or the worn tie rods. i got the idea from 300zx90(co)'s post on his homemade eliminator. i will post again with a long term follow-up. a future upgrade will be the SPL V2 toe arms and incorporate the old Hicas parts (pic 1) probally welded to the eliminator for a strong removable piece.
