72 Duster Resurrection

Guess I need to finish breaking the front end apart and look at everything to decide how far I want to go here.

For example, do I need new tie rod sleeves or can I reuse them? I will need to see what condition they are in to decide that.

I called PST and they said they were not able to split/customize rebuild kits...hmm

So using your suggestions, I have put together my own kit piece by piece so I can get exactly what I want. Have a look at these two orders:

Prothane for all control arm bushings (and lower bump stops)


All other parts (ball joints, tie rod ends, tie rod sleeves, shocks,etc. from rock auto:



Am I missing anything?

Also, got any experience with Monroe for shocks? These look hardcore and are only a few bucks more for the pair than 2 KYB shocks:



I am also putting together this order for the brakes:



Let me know if anything jumps out at you.

Thanks!
