Front end now completely rebuilt! pics
So yesterday after taking the upper control arms out and getting all new bushings and ball joints and new shocks the car is amazingly better can't believe it what a difference now it can be driven everyday. drives straight and true no steering wheel shake but i have a slightly bent right front wheel but no biggy easy replacment.

Sweet! Looks good!
What kind of shocks are those? I just put a set of KYB gas adjust on the rear of my Fury and they worked so well that I bought a set for the front, that I haven't installed yet.

Would you recommend the Monroe-matic for my '66 Vert? I dont need the ride to be stiff when cruising with the top down

thats good at least they are not stiff, i was thinkin of putting these monroe's in the back but i might go with Gabriel high jackers in the back for height adjustibility with Mopar performance leaf springs.

So far i would say they are great shocks smooth over the kind of roads i live on, i have lots of friends with monroes and are happy with them. Many other great shocks out there like KYB, Gabriel and so on are great too.
