I will be replacing the front shocks, springs, brakes, and bearings before the end of August. As of right now the only problem I have with the front end is that the bearings are shot. I am replacing the shocks and springs to get ready for the big block swap in September. Other than the brakes being old and the springs being too soft the car handles very well.
The existing bushings do look like 35 year old pieces of cracked and frayed rubber though. Should I go through the trouble of tearing out and rebuilding the front end now before I do the swap or wait until something wears out. At this point the cost of the bushing set is not an issue.
