So over the last two nights I rebuilt everything in the front:
Shelby drop
UCA
LCA
1" sway bar
new inner and outer tie rods
new strut rod bushings
roller spring perches

Its all together and great. I still have to take it to the hobby shop and use a ball joint puller to seperate the inner tie rods from the steering arm and also get the new roller idler arm in. Then get it aligned. Even with it not aligned it drives way better than it did before. Thats just nuts.

 

Im not surprised.

let me know how it goes once you drive it and its aligned.

nice one ... you'll love it when finished and aligned :-]

 

What is a balljoint puller?

 

Is a 1" sway bar the way to go on a 69-70 ? and i ordered a shelby drop kit and roller perches from daze. What other things are needed for great results? All the above or can you skip things here and there. what are the key composites ?

 

i needed all of those parts or at least bushings, so i just replaced everything. Its really great so far. i get aligned at 2 today.

If i drop the front end another inch do i have to get it aligned again?? It seems that the onlt thing that might change is camber.

 

I would, the control arms are on an arc so it would make your camber worse espcially as you are cornering.
