upper and lower ball joints= 100

upper/lower control are bushings=65

inner/outer tie rodes=300.00 for the kit at jegs (I think you can get them cheaper at autozone).

100 bucks for cleaning rags lube and beer (you'll need the beer!), and if you are stupid like me, 300 bucks to have someone press the bushings for you!!! They are pressed in and a mother to get out. I couldn't get them with a air hammer.

And last the alignment. I paid 100 something for a 3 year.
