Hey gang.. As I've notice over the last couple of years, front suspension kits are getting rather pricey. Anyone with good experience on complete front suspension kits for our b-bodies? I'm looking to dive into the Daytona this Fall..
Thanks in advance.. Troy

I bought a complete front end kit for my car, because it had 160,000 miles on it. However, once I started taking the suspension apart, it turned out I really only needed about half the parts. Acording to the shop service manual, the lower ball joints should not be replaced unless up/down movement is greater than 0.070". Mine was about half that.
Next time I will buy only as needed, not a complete kit.
