Need Susp/Steering issues help
I want to replace most of the suspension and whatever steering issues I might be having but want some opinions.
The car sees to pull alot in ruts and especially when turning and just seems to wander alot in general. Also I feel every single bump in the road and some bumps it feels like the rear end bottoms out. It was restored not to long ago but I think they just put the original stuff back on it.
Company to go with and packages I should choose would be helpful.
Thanks guys.

The general consensus here seems to be that Moog is one of the best manufacturers of suspension and related parts. The problem when purchasing a package from a vendor is that in most cases the parts are from several manufacturers, some of which are not the best in quality. Therefore, most buy the parts they need individually from local sources where Moog is sold. Good luck with your project!

My first question is what are your wheel alignment specs? Both front and rear are important and can make the car a handful to drive if they aren't right. I would do a full inspection on the suspension to be certain that the bushings are in good shape and that all the bolts are tight.
