Front Suspension

["Phillips, Frank" <fwp@ufl.edu>]

Listers,

I am preparing a parts order to rebuild the front and rear suspension on my
'68B and have a few questions for the knowledgeable/experienced.

I am planning to order/replace the following items:

        Front Suspension
                A-Arm bushing - BGT V8 steel
                Fulcrum bushings (shock mounting)
                Sway bar end link bushings
                Sway bar bushings
                Coils

        Rear Suspension
                Shackle bushings
                Leak spring pads
                Spring eye bushings
                Bump stops (rebound straps are new, no need to replace)

        Steering
                Steering rack boots and tie rod ends

I plan to use "Energy Suspension Polyurethane" bushings/pads on all but the
A-Arm bushings. Now the questions...
Should I do more, am I missing anything? Anyone have an opinion on the poly
bushings? What pit falls should I be aware of?

I understand that other parts may need replacement after I get into the
system (kingpins, swivel axle, shocks, etc) but will see when I get there. 

Thanks for the help...
