anybody bought any suspension parts from LMC? Looking at their Front and Rear Suspension Kit. What brand of parts do they use? Part # 34-9065 includes everything for front rebuild including lowering springs. Rear gives you all poly bushings for rear control arms and track bar and lowering springs. All for a price of 600.00. Can't find anybody that comes close to this deal so wondering about quailty of parts. this is for a 68 c-10 with power steering.

So I take it no one has any thoughts to this product? On to CCP.

Someone said that LMC uses Taiwan/China junk. I used CPP, no complaints, good quality.

I figured something was up at that price, thanks for the info.

CPP or Early Classic Enterprises (ECE) www.earlyclassic.com

I've used both and have no complaints.

Try to find an old school mom and pop type of parts store in your area. Have them get you either TRW or Moog parts. That way you get good stuff and still support the little man, who is the backbone of this country.

I hate LMC. They don't have any customer service to speak of. I like to look folks in the eye when doing business if I can.

I put a complete front suspension rebuild together from summit racing.
It took about 2 weeks extra for the pitman arm, and all parts are MOOG.

This ended up about 100 cheaper than a comparable kit from ECE, however you have to talk to the right people, one guy went back into the paper catalogs to get part numbers for me and was very helpful.
