Ok, the rear axle needs rebuild in my Chevelle. No biggy, bearing kits are cheap. Control bushings are shot so I'm looking for advice.
Option 1:
207 Edelbrock Adjustable Uppers (Summit)
325 Global West Lowers TBC-4 (GW)
100 Edelbrock Brace (Summit)
134 2" Drop Springs (CoilSprings.COM)
129 Bearing Kit (Summit)
030 (2) Moog Bushings
925 Total
Option 2:
123 Moog Bushing Kit (OPGI)
129 Bearing Kit (Summit)
134 2" Drop Springs (CoilSprings.COM)
386 Total
Difference is $539. Thinking that I will be kicking myself if I choose NOT to go with the upgrade parts over stock.

Option 4:fix the cr@ppy design the general put in there and convert over to a 3link with watts link. OK maybe overkill for a stret car, how about 3link with a PHB.
Do it once the right way and forget about it.

If BMR arms had spherical bearings as an option I would consider them.
Option 5:
Currie Enterprises (http://www.currieenterprises.com/)
I'm getting the drop in 9" assembly, but the control arms are a bolt-on for the 10/12 bolt, and have spherical bearings. Of course, I'm getting those, too. Give 'em a call.
