$65
I am also setting up an Auto x / DE program for people who like to change them out as much as they can. It will be around $100 for your first set but you get to replace them as many times as you like for $15 each time. It will require returning your bushings before the new ones will be sent out but the $15 will include shipping your new ones. If you want to go with that program you may want to buy a set of these also so you have a set between change outs.

What about purchasing individual kits. For one side at a time? I bought a new A-Arm for the passenger side at 140k (50k ago) and have yet to autoX on it. The driver's side is dying .

Oh and what about individual parts prices, i.e. how much do only boots cost?

Just one side will only cost you $32.50 + $3.00 for an extra boot.
The sale price is a much better deal at $26.99

I know I know, I pickup my first paycheck at the new job tomorrow. I'll probably end up kicking myself in the butt for not taking advantage of this, but I just cannot.

Very tempting to put up food for the week.

Yeah great deal...I picked up a set. I have never installed these how hard is it and how long does it take. Will I need a realignment after? I am capable of doing this, I just have not done it before.

Your alignment should stay intact. Just mark your caster settings on your rear caster block before removal. The install is done with basic tools and should not take more than an afternoon. I have a sheet with some basic instructions but I am sure all kinds of tips and tricks will come out of the wood work when the tutorial entries start rolling in.
On a side note, most of the orders that have come in so far have requested the red boots. There are only 20 or so sets left so if anyone wants them I would get your orders in ASAP.

I ordered myself a set!

This way I can rebuild my factory aluminum A-arms and sell them with good ball joints!

So...anybody want some Turbo S a-arms with freshly rebuilt ball joints?

I personally spent the last 3 months building $7000 worth of tooling to make the cups and bushings so that they fit a tighter spec than the original Porsche ones. The extra effort was not necessary but the final product is worth it. When I pressed the final sample pieces in before the production I could not believe how nice they fit.
