Front end rebuild?
Car is clunking and clanking when I slowly turn and when I hit some bumps. Not exactly sure what it is but all the bushings look nasty. How much do typical front end rebuild go for for these cars?

mine went easy.. it was in a front end collision, i replaced all bushings, put in a new suspension, steering stabilizer, all myself.. Im 16 too, so that gives you a clue on how hard it is..lol........
lol nice. Did you have to replace the control arm bushings? How much would all this stuff be? My buddy got a MOOG front end rebuild kit for his impala ss and it was about $500-$600.

Sounds good man thanks. What do you think on a front end rebuild, like roughly $200-$300 for everything? I found this.. does this apply? http://rustysoffroad.com/mm5/merchan...egory_Code=ste

thats a tie rod and stuff.. its for your steering... if your steering is messed up then ya get it but if you mean suspension wise you dont need it at all.. what are you looking to do? lift it?
Eventually yes, but its just making real loud clunking noises when I turn. With that said, I just want to fix it lol, car feels like its going to fall apart everytime i turn slowly or hit a bump

yea replace the tie rod, and tie rod ends.. mine did that too, every time you go from the right to the left it feels like its going to fall out from under your truck.. I replaced the entire front and it still does it for some reason, but not near as bad.. i am very happy with the results
