I'm looking to get the suspension on my warlock replaced and wanted to get some info about what I should order. I know I need new bushings, shocks, maybe coils. Anyone have any suggestions on a kit or a list of parts that I should order to get an almost 40 year old suspension back in good working order?

www.rockauto.com the kits are made up with "Made in China" stamped on them.. good luck




Hmmm, I have nothing against Chinese products, but there has to be something better than that.

That first post didnt come out right

GET your parts from Rock Auto..


The various "complete" kits have Chinese made parts.

You will care when that crap fails after about 5000 miles..

I have bought a lot of suspension and brake parts for my two Dodge trucks from Rockauto.com. One of the nice things about buying from them is that they give you choices for nearly everything. Like shocks from Gabriel, Monroe and KYB all the way from Economy, OEM and Performance in each line. If you need it NOW!, get it at the local auto parts. If you can plan ahead, order from Rockauto.com and save a bundle

I bought my suspension bushing from PST and used mooog tie rod ends from the parts store in town when i lowered my 79. It been done for 5 years now with now problems at all. I stayed with the stock style rubber stuff. Polyurethane will beat the snot out of you.
