[urq] Question regarding suspension interchangeability - bit of a hijack..

[Robert A Dupree]

If anybody is looking for a set, I've got a F&R set of the later 2-piece style hub/upright assembly from a 90Q that I did not end up using.  I do not have the control arms, nor the later subframes, and the wheel bearing housings do not have wheel bearings or hubs in them.  

However they are all painted nice and shiny black.

In Houston, heavy.  Come get them.  Bring me beer.
Money bribes accepted to get me to ship them...

Currently they collect dust in the attic - as you can tell I am emotionally involved with these metal bits and so I'll need pain & suffering money for them...  [ya'll know I'm kidding right?!?!]  Hopefully some UrQ'er can use them.
