Anyone have a good source for parts for the front end? Tie rods, ball joints, sway bar end links? Plan to redo it all to remove the slop. Not sure if there are generic alternatives to the really expensive oem versions. Thanks

More often than not, your inner tie rods & rear toe links are the first to wear out. Same part number fixes both. eBay Bestpartsonline store. Your swaybar links typically look worse than they actually are due to deteriorated boots. Lots of places to buy them from. Generic wheel bearings don't last very long. Do some thread searching on the subject before jumping off on the hub bearings and be sure they are actually worn out.
I've had moderate luck with finding stuff on RockAuto, but my car is a gen 3 and I know parts are starting to dry up for it even, so wouldn't surprise me if the selection is even more thin for the earlier gens. I've heard decent things about Meevotech parts, so that might be an option if they make anything for the earlier cars.
