I rebuilt most of the front end of my 70 GTO last winter. Pro forged ball joints, sandblasted and repainted control arms etc.. I use the energy, suspensions, urethane, black bushings.. I really didn’t know how it was going to work out because some people say it’s stiff or squeaky, but I’ve been driving around this summer and it feels all normal to me. No squeaks and no harshness and the car handles great. Afterwards got a new front iend alignment with 3.5 positive castor. And a little bit of negative camber.
