This has been one heck of an informative thread. I was lucky enough to get some money back from Uncle Sam this year. Some of the funds I put away for a rainy day and the rest, well, the rest I'm spending on April. She needs a new interior and a new suspension.
I've been researching this for awhile and talked to 72bluNblu because he has the type of setup that I'm hoping to achieve. Well, at least close to it.
So far, this is what I have on my list for my '74 Duster...
Moog Stuff @ Rock Auto
K7086 Idler Arm
K783 Lower Ball Joint - Left
K781 Lower Ball Joint - Right
ES355RL Tie Rod End - Inner (11/16") x 2
ES352R Tie Rod End - Outter (11/16") x 2
Note: Items like upper ball joints and upper control arm bushings omitted because they are included in tubular upper control arms
PST Parts
PST Bilstein Shocks - Front
PST Lower Control Arm Rebuild Kit - Rubber
PST Tie Rod Sleeves 11/16 inch
PST Torsion Bar Master Kit - 1.03 inch
Reilly Motorsports Parts
Reilly Motorsport Strut Rods
Reilly Motorsport Upper Control Arms - Rod Ends
Hellwig Parts @ Summit
55905 Hellwig 1 1/8 inch Sway Bar - Tubular
My alternatives in upper control arms and torsion bars were from Firm Feel, but seems like PST and Reilly Motorsports is more cost effective. I would have gone with the 1.06 inch Firm Feel torsion bars.
You'll probably note that I haven't addressed the rear. I figured that could be phase 2 when I save up some more money. I also want to add sub frame connectors down the line as well.
Anyway... Let me know what you think of that combination.
Pricing: $1640.00
Note: That's for everything and that's not including the 10% FABO members discount at PST or the 5% discount at Rock Auto (until March 20th 2016)
