A-Body Front end rebuild and alignment questions
 
Rebuilding the front end on my Elky. Del-A-Lum is not in my budget this time around, so I just got some stock Moog bushings and Ball joints.

Any advice?

Is there anything I can do with the bushings to get them to move more freely?

What are the best alignment settings so the car rolls easily?

What type of wheel bearings?

Sean, I used the del a lum stuff in my Malibu, but my bracket car has moog stuff. I know guys grind off the teeth off the bushings, and use a locking nut, or 2 nuts to lock the nut and not bind the control arm. My camaro's front suspension moves pretty freely and launches really nicely. I reccomend the Calvert front shocks as well, a great shock at a reasonable price. I also use a upper ball joint spacer in my Camaro, and a longer stud in the Malibu, gives a little more travel to transfer the weight. I am by no means a suspension expert, hope this helps a little.
