73-87 tubular control arm question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

hey guys, i've got an 86 silverado, have a question...
any recommendations on a tubular control arm and or complete front end kit?
the whole front end suspension on my truck needs rebuilt, all rod ends/ball joints, control arm bushings, idler/pitman arm etc. etc.
was wondering if it would be easier and more economical to get a complete tubular kit, or replace all the components separately, press out the bushings and all that.

i'm pretty sure that i will only be doing a static drop at this point...

kind regards
