I`ve been looking at front end stuff until i`m now blue in the face. Can someone just recommend where to buy a complete rebuild kit in Moog or Dana/Spicer. I see this problem solver talked about, what is that? I would like to buy a complete kit and save a few bucks if i can. Thanks. Bill :sad:

Moog and Dana front end parts are top notch companies whose products are made to last not like "off brand kits "that use parts from every where..... By going with a name brand you know that you are doing it right because they are made safe and made to fit properly !!!!
(Moog Problem Solver units have been updated with special knurling on ball joints to retain properly and use heavy duty rubber boots )

Does this mean that you sell a kit? I have always had good luck with both brands. Thanks. Bill

Come on guys, i will need these parts soon and i don`t want junk on my car. I know someone out there has bought this kit or just the parts from somewhere. If nothing else, a list of part numbers would be great. Bill

Sorry no part numbers but I know that rockauto.com seels the Moog parts NAPA also sells the parts the drawback is from anywhere that I've seen these parts is there is not an all-inclusive kit or package, you have to buy them individually.

Good Luck,

Took it to NTB had them do the front end alignment...... Man it is like night and day...... Nice and tight.... Not bad with the low profile tires.......
