What would i need for the 5 lug conversion?
I thinking i should get the suspension from a 98 240 and put it on my 93 240. Ive heard some 96 and up 240s have limited slip. Is this true. Ill rather go with the 5 lug so i can put some nice rays wheels(deep dish). What do you guys think? Please some info. Thanx again.

Still waiting to hear from the brave souls who changed suspension bushings themselves..... anyone??
Anyhow, I ended up drilling out the rubber and cutting the remaining metal ring out. Not the best way but given the tools available to the typical weekend mechanic, the easiest way to go.
I wouldn't recommend anyone undertaking the affair of putting in the TC Rod bushings that doesn't have access to a machine press. A real one not the Pep Boys special. Trust me on this one.
I'm getting ready to tackle the control arms but fear damaging the ball joint rubber part with a pickle fork. So I wanted to ask what experiences have people have taking these off and, again, what tools/methods worked?
