Default Suspension Rebuild Kits

I noticed several distributors that offer package front and rear rebuild kits. What are your thoughts on these kits. I am replacing all of the bushings, bolts. and tie rods on both the front and rear end and did not know if this was more feasible than getting piece by piece.

Hi Eric,
If you are replacing everything then a package will save you money and time.

Package is the way to go if you are doing everything at once. Check out all of your normal dealers and go with the best price. Just ensure that the packages you are comparing all come with the same equipment. Check them out at Van Steel, Ecklers, etc.

I'm in the middle of doing mine and I have been very happy so far.
