Who sells the “correct” front end rebuild kit (complete) for a 1971 Dodge Demon, the OE parts, not poly.
1. Before you replace everything, inspect each of your used parts to determine if some are still good. Keep original factory parts in good condition and don't replace.
2. Check out the price of NOS parts that you really need. Quality is unquestioned.
I bought a complete front end rebuild kit for my 160,000 mile A body, then found that some of my factory original parts were still good:
Tie rod ball joint ends, inner
Tie rod ball joint ends, outer
Tie rod tubes with clamps
Pitman arm ball joint
The lower ball joints were just barely out of spec at 160,000 miles according to the factory service manual.
Ended up replacing upper and lower ball joints and all dust seals with NOS. Replaced all bushings with Rock Auto aftermarket. There are several sellers of original style bushings, but many of them are actually made by Harris and rebranded. I've used Harris bushings for years with no problems.
