just to clarify, how much to rebuild all pieces? The Camber Control Links (Figure 8's), control arms #1 and Banana control arms #2. = Total of 4 arms and 2 camber links....


also i like how you did the banana arm bushing. it seems a better design over the GT4 racing.eu because it allows for more moving within the mounting point. http://www.gt4-racing.eu/index.php/toyota-...suspension-arms

also you said these last longer than Original Toyota Arms (and I believe you), however gt4 racing offers 1 year warranty. do you offer the same???

No problem. I'll give you a one-year warranty (and you can go to the Rally or ring races, anywhere).
If in one year you break my levers of suspension I'll repair them for free (at your expense).
I can not guarantee the polyurethane parts because I do not produce them, but I just buy them and put them in the banana lever of the suspension.
Restoration of suspension levers - 425 USD
(If I'm making out of your leverage suspension).
Polyurethane bushes in banana suspension levers 2х21 = 42 USD

Yes, I agree with you on everything except one.
When the suspension that you bought in Poland will begin to knock, you again have to pay 500 + postal services.
When my suspension starts to knock, you can repair it yourself by paying 120 for new sleeves (the parcel will have a weight of 100 grams).
The shipping price will not be big.
Do you notice the difference?

What exactly is not clear?
How do I regain my suspension levers again?
Ask, because of the translation is possible and I'm not quite right I can understand the question.

Your friend here says you will have to ship back your suspension to Poland compared to his where you can buy replacement parts and do it yourself.

I apologize for the delay, a lot of work.
I will continue, perhaps.
So this set of SSS suspension levers was very difficult for a rebuild.
Now you will see for yourself.

10 years ago I had a ST-202 with McPherson suspension and I did not have a similar problem.
When I bought the ST-205 I solved this problem for myself and for several years I have been helping all owners of the ST-205.

Since I am engaged in the restoration of SSS levers to Celica (202-205) for more than one year and in the mail I was repeatedly asked to restore the stratum for Levin, I still decided to do it.
So, I'll start. Since I was not sure about the result, I had to do it with my own money and with my leverage.
I myself go to the ST-205 and make levers also for the 205th and 202nd Celica, so I did not have any leverage on Levine.
But they sent me all the same.

Good work!

Do you have replacement boots for sale for ST205 SSS? The arms I have are good, but the wrecking yard tore the boots when removing off the car. Need to replace before installing on the car.

The rubber boots that cover the joins to keep grease in and dirt outside.

Fantastic work Wild202! This is a great service you are offering.

I have had some of the rebuilt arms from Poland, however they didn't last long before one started to fail; around 10k miles. To be fair they did send a replacement as it was within the 12 months guarantee, but after around 18 months the other side started knocking too.
I ended up eventually replacing them all with new from Toyota.

I suspect they don't open up the joints fully like you do & replace in their entirety, but use some sort of resin injection method to restore the main joints on the lower arm & fig 8, similar method to this: http://www.renewit.co.za/how-it-works.html
