68 front end rebuild

[pat]

Hey guys.
I've got to replace my power steering gearbox, and I for some reason never got my front end aligned, so now I need new front tires-very bad wear inside.
Anyway, I figured now would be a good time to do what I should have done when my truck was all torn apart, rebuild the front suspension.
I replaced the upper and lower ball joints during the rebuild, but nothing else.
What parts do I really need to get to rebuild the front suspension?
It doesnt feel tight, so I'd like to fix it.

Thanks

I’m in the process of doing a full front end on my 79. Here’s my list hope it helps:


Control arm bushings
Lower Ball Joint
Upper Ball Joint
tie rod ends
Idler arm
Shocks
Pitman Arm
Gear Box (rebuild)
Stabilizer
Sway Bar



I’m also making new control arms, when I pulled the bushings on mine the mounts were shot. And a lot of people say you don’t need the stabilizer or sway bar but they make the ride nicer.

Check out ECE, they offer a complete front end rebuild kit, all MOOG parts for around $575. A little high, but if you price the parts at your local O'Reilly's it will be over $600+.

I dunno, doesnt seem as bad as I thought. For 2 inner and 2 outer tie rod ends, 2 adjustor sleeves, an idler arm, a pitman arm, 2 front control arm shaft and bushing kits, and 2 rear control arm shaft and bushing kits, it only totals to about $330, tax included.

and my shocks are pretty new, I have a sway bar with new bushings, and I already have a rebuilt pwr steering box

I bought everything from Amazon, spent $230 for everything you listed accept for the control arm shafts. All Moog parts.
