I need to order a rebuild kit for my 70 front suspension. I am going with the stock type. I've narrowed it down to PST's Super Front End Kit and Ground UP's Front suspension kit deluxe. Does anybody have a preference? PST's has a few more parts but is slighty more that Ground UP's. I did a search on this saw a lot about PST. I'm just not sure of Ground Up's stuff.
Thanks, Tim

I asked the same question a few months ago. I ended up getting my front end kit from PST. I'm still in the middle of putting my car back together. The only bad thing so far that I can say about getting a the kit from PST is that it does not come with any instruction manual or any parts list of which part is which. But after taking my car apart, I actually learned which part goes where.
I'll post my update in a couple of weeks when I get done with my project. Good Luck!

The PST super kits are really good. I've gotten two sets of their Poly-Graphite front end bushing kits- one for a friends 72 elky, and one on my 70 elky... Can't really compare with a brand new set of the plain rubber ones, but they are a million times better than the old worn out stock ones...

I used a PST polygraphite kit for the front end on the nomad, quality parts and fits like stock. Good improvement over stock.

They are probably both selling the same parts. Energy bushings and Mcquay Norris,TRW or Moog BJs etc.
