Default Front Suspension Rebuild Kit

I have an 82 Collectors Edition and I'm looking to redo my front suspension. I'm definitely going with a polyurethane kit. The thing is the more catalogs I look at, "Zip, Ecklers, Wilcox......" the different the kits look. I'm looking for a complete front suspension rebuild kit. I know I may or may not have to buy an additional part if needed. Can anyone recommend a place with a good complete kit from past experience?

I'd give the guys at Vansteel a call and tell them what you're planning to do. They sell several complete kits and they also work on vettes (Willcox as well) and in my own experience they treat you right

I bought mine for the whole car from eBay and it works great. By that said any of those you’re looking at would surely work just fine. Don’t satisfy with the cheapest tho
