Galant Parts

[Zaid]

Hi all, its been a while since I have been on the forums mainly due to my new lifestyle (marriage ).

Okay so I have a Galant V6 Sport which I recently took to the stealers for a service and it came back with a long list of things that need doing and the quote came to heavty bill; so am looking to get the fix-up in a cheaper way by locating the parts and taking it to an independent garage. I would appreciate if anyone could advice me where I can parts for the following and answer some of the questions I have regarding each item/point:

Both rear shock absorbers: I found some on ebay and motorsport; should I go for the mitsibushi brand or an aftermarket one like KYB etc

Off side front top swivel ball joint: where to buy?

Both off side lower ball loints: where to buy?

Oil leak from behind timing belt covers: any idea what this might be?

Many thanks in advance
