Front end upgrades 74 dart 225 slant 6

Time to decide if you want to upgrade to disc brakes or not as well. If you already have discs then that's great. If you don't and you're learning toward getting discs, then you might as well do the disc/suspension rebuild at the same time because some of the suspension pieces are different for disc vs drum. Also you want to get the car aligned the least amount possible to save money. So when you go to do the upper control arm bushings, you might as well just do the whole thing. Upper and lower ball joints, lower control arm bushings, tie rod ends and strut rod bushings. That way you can get everything together in one piece and have it aligned once and be done with it.

If you're doing it yourself, the only real difficult part would be the lower control arm bushings. They can't just be pressed out easily like the uppers. Some guys will weld a washer to them and press them out that way. I'm not good enough with a welder to do this so I went the caveman route and used an air chisel and hand chisels to get the bushing out of there.
