Hi I want to overhaul my 69 Camaro front suspension, can anyone recommend a good supplier for a complete kit or would I be better sourcing the individual parts that require replacement?
I already have shocks and springs. Kind regards to all who reply |

When i did mine i got a deal on a kit from a local Classic industries dealer, i think it was right around $200. Ive got a buddy with a 67 Bird and he bought a kit from PST and really likes it.

I would suggest getting the Moog parts. I don't know if you can get them in a package deal- check the dealers. It seems overwhelming at first when you're not familiar with front suspension and a "kit" sounds easier, but it's usually not as good. I made the mistake of buying the one from Rick's. When I got to the upper ball joints, they were "el cheapos" and had no instructions. I ended up having a suspension guy re do the lower ball joints as I re-bought Moog's for all 4. (I had a suspension shop press in my control arm bushings and lower ball joints). If I had it to do again, I would piece the "kit" together myself.
All it consists of is: Control arm bushings(8)You may want to go poly Ball joints(4)Moog's seem to be made very well Tie rod ends(4) Sway bar links(2sets)I got new ones with my new sway bar anyway Pitman arm- optional on kits Idler bar-optional also Good luck with your decisionhttp://www.camaros.net/forums/images/icons/icon6.gif Cool |
