Actually, I've already tried both ways in our 323.

Most of the front suspension parts was replaced by Rapide a few years ago... a bit pricey at 20K++. The rear suspension was taken care of Zee a few months ago to the tune of only 4K++. Am actually satisfied with both jobs.

For the Rav4, it seems that the ball joints and stabilizer link has already deteriorated. The estimated cost of replacement of this parts (original) is around 9K only.

Though I am also thinking of just having this repaired since I am pretty sure that the bill for this would not surpass 1/3 of the cost of replacement.

What do you think guys? Ok kaya ang repair for a Rav4?

Thanks,
