70 Duster Front End Rebuild Help

for those rebuilding their front end bear in mind...from some of these posts new suspension parts may not be as good as what you are removing.If your original tie rods or whatever are sound and tight i'd leave them.You may be replacing them with something inferior.

I hope that's not the case. I know the old LCA and UCA bushings were shot as were the upper and lower ball joints. I cleaned up all the old parts and made them look much better than they did and I'm in the middle of reassembly. It is starting to look like a car with steering and suspension again. I still have the brakes, front sway bar and tightening of some things but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it feels good that I did all of this myself and didn't pay a shop to do it.
