1966 Bonneville Front Suspension
I'm in need of updating the suspension on my '66 Bonneville wagon and I've got some questions and/or am open for suggestions.
I've looked (for a while now) and there doesn't seem to be any aftermarket options. RARE used to have a tubular kit like 8 years ago, but they don't make them any more. Is there anything out there I'm missing? I'd like to update most everything at once since it's gonna be a pain, but I've never done a full suspension before... Should I try to get all parts (bushings/ball joints, etc) together or is there a kit that has all new parts? Control shaft bushings Ball joints (upper/lower) I was considering new springs. (already have new KYB shocks.) Sorry, kind of rambling... just trying to figure out what to do here... TJ

It will never be a Corvette but a quicker steering box, bigger sway bars, a 1 inch drop & a good alignment will do wonders.
Enjoy!
