Front-end rebuild kit advice

[BananaDan]

Does anyone have any advice or comments on the difference between these two kits?  There's a pretty significant price difference.  I've read a lot of posts about people using both kits without issues. I'm just mainly curious if the P-S-T price is worth it because it's a better kit, or are they the same and I can save $140 by going with the other kit.



The cheaper kit doesn't mention Tie Rod Sleeves or Upper Cam and Bolt Kits, which the P-S-T kit seems to include.

Dan,

When I did mine, I did it all individually and got stuff when it was on sale at local auto parts stores.  I also got better stuff like Moog or TRW parts.  As for the tie rod sleeve, I just reused mine.  Unless yours are bent or seriously pitted to the point of questioning its strenth, I would just reuse it.

PST is located off 287 in Boonton NJ.   Some old factory with cars on the roof.    Got no problem with any of their stuff.


If you're not concerned about being original...   then go for C body 11/16 tie rods and aftermarket solid sleeves instead of that stock stuff and piece meal the rest...  well, that's what I'd do
