Hey, Weathers gettin warm, going to have to rebuild the front suspension. one of the wheels is taking an unhealthy lean inboard. don't feel it on the road, but it is perceptible when looking at the car from about 20 ft. away. As it has smartly been pointed out, it makes little sense to do the job piece meal and replace only what is currently "bad", so it is my intention to do it all at once. Anyone venture to take a stab at cost of parts? Mama says theres not alot of dough in the cookie jar. i'm going to check Rock auto and napa. 72 Valiant thanks for comments |

When I bought my 66 Dart Convertable it came with a complete front suspension rebuild kit. The reciept is dated April 2006 and it was $290 with tax. |

I got a Performance Suspension kit which was great. I don't know the cost anymore, but for simplicity and need it was perfect. |

Rock Auto lists our cars- not always the case with the big-name parts places - and is usually competitive on price. They don't have bushing kits that I know of, though. I ordered individual pieces, mostly because I was doing the rebuild in conjunction with a disk swap and general upgrade. Some '64, some late A-body, and a couple of C-body pieces. After a lot of researching, shopping, and headscratching, I was able to order by part number.[/code] |
