Front end rebuild....buy new or rebuild?

and Id rebuild teh original.... these days everyone seems afraid of control arm bushings.... theyre easy.
I wish I still did alignments. my peeled away Michelins on my truck bear that out.... I had a highly recommended shop align it and my 70k mile Michelins (over $600 for a pair) are almost to cords on both inside fronts after 14k miles.... he left it "toed out". and it still pulled right when he was done. I even went back and asked about it...
I never had those issues when I was able to bring my vehicles in and do my own after hours.... for free. Nowadays I pay like 99.9% of everyone else and this is what I get.
