Re: 69 c10 front end rebuild
Go to the suspension and steering section of your shop/repair manual. It will have exploded views of all the components and detailed how-to's for repair & replacement. Your parts list will come from that in a few short minutes.

Re: 69 c10 front end rebuild
Hey Matt aboard from NC....you are on the right track....
ball joints (upper and lower) control arm shafts (upper and lower) Tie rods (inner and outer) adjusting sleeves idler arm pitman arm rag joint (if yours is eaten up) If you don't have one, I'd install a sway bar too Check your local auto parts stores for pricing...I've also found that Amazon, Rockauto.com, etc sometimes have better prices for same parts including shipping.... I'd also recommend using high quality parts as well...good luck and have fun! be sure to get an alignment done once you are done with the remove/ replace

Early Classic Enterprises is having a 10% off sale for the front end kit. It is all raybestos professional grade stuff. Im pretty sure they have moog as well. I got my kit on monday. It was $540ish if i can remember. Top quality part and great customer service.
