New front suspension struts for Camry 95


torque

Recommended Posts

Howdy all,

Mines a 1995 Camry, I had to get new front tyres for rego, all good.

Noticed after a couple ov days that the car was pulling to the right,

had to keep the steering wheel about 10 degrees to the left to go straight, (hard at the best of times for me)

So off to get a 4 wheel alignment today, ($65 at Bob Jane Edgecliff)

But still the problem persists.

The dude at BJ was pretty cool, said that it wasn't the alignment anymore,

said that it could be the CV boots or the struts?

I am thinking ov just getting both the CV boots & the suspension done at once, maybe all 4?

to save on some labour costs as there due to be replaced again.

So, what to get?

I like the sound ov the KYB GR-2's but will they fit a Camry 95?

I have been recommended 'Precision Auto Spares' at Botany,

By NGK, who are the people who distribute them in Australia.

But does that mean you pay more than if you import 'em?

I'll get my quote off the local guys tomorrow & let you know $$$.

any feed back on what you guys have got, used or dream about, that will fit would be greatly appreciated.

Thank in advance

torque.

Twice when I have had wheel alignments done the steering wheel has been off centre afterwards. The first time it was Bob Jane and they were not exactly happy about having the car back, but none the less after some firm talking to them they corrected it within five minutes.

I had a wheel alignment done last week as I had new struts fitted and the wheel was "cocked" to the right slightly. It came back and the steering wheel was off significantly to the left now - I had sore wrists after driving it to work. This time it was Tyrepower and I asked to speak to the staff member who did the alignment - he apologised and fixed it the next morning. He told me it is a five minute fix and that it was his fault.
