car is back in my garage :yea:
steering was horrible and wasn't able to pin point it. turns out they gave me the wrong lower tie rod ends and her control arm bushings are shot. so new struts, control arms, and re install correct rod ends. Looks like I have "black friday" covered

well we are all fixed again 
/> its like a whole new car now. its soooooo quiet and drives a lot better. the driver side front strut was so bad I could compress & decompress it with little effort. I'm shocked that the car wasn't bouncing all over the place since the springs are basically all that was supporting the car. Still well under 1/3 of what they wanted to fix the car with all the "extra" items that were completed. Here I thought it was just the car and it being FWD that it was a little sloppy.
Funny this was probably the hardest car I have worked on physically with the bolts being older and the parts showing there age. But all the cuts and bruises were all worth the challenge at the end of the day and this car should have lots of life left when it was very close to being towed to a scrap yard.
