I sure did think this site would have at least one person that has rebuilt their front suspension without tossing the whole thing.

Bummer

Re: where to order rebuild kit for 1960 3/4 ton GMC front suspension

I have a 1960 GMC 1/2 ton and need to replace the front suspension. I know some parts are different from GMC to Chevy from 60-62. Is the front suspension the same? also, has anyone used the below kit or should I go with a different company?

I don't remember which parts exactly, but some of the control arm bushings and maybe ball joints are the same on the 60-62 between half ton and 3/4. GMpartswiki.com is a little tough to navigate, but has all of the old part numbers to confirm parts interchange. The bushings for the control arms can be found on ebay as "nos" and every once in a while you can find Moog ball joints. I don't think you'll find a complete kit. Good luck!
