Front suspension: Wimped out - went to a shop. New questions though

["graves_14" <tylergraves@xxxx>]

Ended up going to a shop and I'm glad I did. The shop is experienced 
with DeLoreans, but they had a heck of a time removing the old 
springs from the front. They said it took three guys to get each one 
out (which justifies the bill $$). The also had to cut one out. I'm 
glad I didn't get to that point. The shocks, on the other hand, went 
on without a hitch. Thanks for all your input though and I'm sure 
someone going through the archives will find it helpful.

Now on to the new question. They claim that the inner tie rod ends 
are lose. I've consulted two DMC vendors about this and they both 
agree that I can't get the inner rods separately. SO, this means a 
whole new rack. Anyone have any advice on replacing a rack? Can't be 
any worse than those darn springs! Also, any feedback on the 
differences between P.J. and Houston's racks? I know P.J.'s doesn't 
come with tie rod ends, but Houston's does. This sounds like an $85 
plus, but P.J.'s has more refurbishment. Choices choices choices...
