Well, guys, I am back in "Healey Mode"... My attention has been diverted by career changes, family stuff and all the 'real world' clutter that seems to get in the way of my enjoying the Healey for a couple of years now. Things have sorted out and stabilized - despite a daughter's upcoming wedding in January - so I am now starting back on the Healey. She has been sitting neglected for some time but started up on first crank and was a blast to drive last weekend. Rediscovered my joy when in the cockpit of that old beast! However, the front end is a bit worn. I know that the king pins are a bit worn and I still don't like the way the car rides. The rest of the front end seems to be pretty tight. So, I am going to redo the king pins for sure. Is there anything else that I should do while in there? I have new rotors and front hubs to install and figure I probably should replace the wheel bearings, too. Also the brake pads. Have already replaced connecting rod ends. Another real question is whether I should replace the standard shocks with the Bilstein tube shock kit from Fahrpass? I just have the hankering to do that. I wonder if I am expecting too much from the old beast? - I am driving a 2006 Mazda MX-5 with all the suspension options these days and the Healey just seems so much the antique in comparison....but then it is! Seriously, what is the collective forum viewpoint on this? I have newly rebuilt front shocks and the rears are full of fluid and don't leak. The bolts are tight. On smooth road it is fine, but on the unevenly patched sections of pavement it feels like one is driving on terribly washboarded dirt roads...very unsmooth. Am I expecting too much? I have owned this car since 1972 and used to drive it hard in all conditions but am now reluctant to get on it at all.... I know this is a long post, but do need to "discuss" this - and who better than you guys??
