Default Front end rebuild

Getting ready to do the front end on my 84. Should I go with a kit that includes the inner tie rod ends? Most of the kits I saw only have the outers. Any body with experience in Eckler's stuff

haven't used the stuff from Ecklers, but I've used these bushing on my 84 and there're pretty nice

Try here for a full kit. Guy is easy to deal with but the above post is where I got my sway bar bushings as they are not included in this kit. The parts I had were from Moog so no worry about quality.

I got a kit that includes upper and lower ball joints and outer tie rod ends for the front end of my '85.

Stuff fit and works perfectly. I believe I purchased it from ecklers.
