164 a-arms

[Mastro Subaru / Alfa Romeo Of Tampa <mastro@domain.elided>]

Vlad Vlad Vlad, 

Why make this difficult? Alfa sells the whole a-arm, Or you can install
the SuperPros and solve the bushing issue for good. 

The front end on the 164 is pretty simple and not prone to huge
problems.
The rear end is simple as well and if you have wear problems, it is a
mechanical issue.
Bent tie rods or towed improperly. Simple parts replacement.

Let me know if I can help
