I rebuilt the front end on my 6 in 1991. New bushings, competition springs,
brakes,bearings and oil seals, ball joints, tie rod ends, and shocks. My
current project is to go back in and replace the trunnions (driver's side is
cracked) and rebush the steering rack and column.
Oh, yeah, you can expect better handling, etc.
