I want to rebuild the front end of my '69RR, this is a complete rebuild... I see several companies offering kits, I like the ones including the upper control arms and has polyurethane bushings. Is there a consensus among Moparts members on which kits are "best" or at least worth the money??

Thanks

any piece in a kit that is available in "moog" brand that's what you want. upper/lower ball joints/UCA bushings etc. Not sure what Moog offers for pitman/idler/tie rod ends but if they (Moog)makes em get em. Differing opinions on if rubber or poly in the LCA's. Been posted that rock auto has good kit prices

I checked out Rock Auto. Unless I am reading their cataloge wrong, they don't have complete kits.

They don't...you just order everything seperate. I've had good luck dealing with them as well.
There is usually a 5% discount code floating around for them too.

They do have everything though right? I understand I'll have to order everything seperate but I don't see a listing for upper control arms.

No, they do not sell control arms, since they are not really a wear item..
