13 Best Front End Rebuild Kits (2023 Updated)

Everything fit for a 12HP 3312 snapper. Could have used a couple more washers for the wheel bearings as one was missing and maybe a tie ride end for the extra tough model. Just a few extras would have been cool but overall it was much better than buying everything separately.

Which i would not have spent money on. For this price. Yeah I’ll freshen it up.

The plastic parts fit great, but the washers and cotter pins are not the same size as the original. The washers are larger and the cotter pins are way smaller. Still better than expected.

came with all the parts for the front end of my 1133x5s snapper. It even had extra parts for other models.

This is a good little set if all your rubber boots, bushings are worn out on your steering setup, and you are starting to see ware on your tires. I had it professionally installed. This is not to say that it is not a DYI project, with the right tools and equipment.

I knew also that even if I put it on myself, I would have to get it aligned at a shop. I went into this project knowing it would cost me somewhere close to 1,000 dollars parts and labor. This to me is better than spending 2 to 400 dollars on a set of tires every 2 years or so.

I would like to see a set like this with grease fittings on them though. That way it allows someone to do maintenance on it about every 10,000 miles when they rotate their tires.

2 days since installation of tie rods, relay rod, and idler arm and its now creaking and squeaking like crazy. I would love to pump the joints with grease but there are no zerks because these are all sealed, ungreasable joints.

Also, some boots were not secured, others not sealing completely, and most seeming to have minimal grease. Pretty irritating and disconcerting. I gave 3 starts because it fit fine and I have a lot of hope something will convince me before long that I didnt just waste all that money and time.

Two boots arent even attached, I looked in it since it was already off and there was barely any grease. One ball joint and on idler arm. Rubber on the boot Seems cheap. Im unsure how Im supposed to grease them.

maybe Im wrong. But Im calling it how I see it and Im not even sure if I trust the quality.

I bought this set a few weeks ago, my vehicle was making clunking noises every time I would drive over dips and bumps in the road. I also was able to push the front end down very easily and it was almost like bouncing a basketball! Shipping was fast, parts arrived as pictured and install took about 1-1.

5 hrs tops. The car now have virtually no noises when driving around town, steering wheel is nice and tight. Smooth easy driving now! Time will only tell about the quality as far as how long these will last, but a few weeks later ZERO ISSUES SO FAR.

Would purchase this and other suspension components again.

My car has been riding like a rock. Did not realize how rough it was until I had the new shocks and struts installed. I’ve been upgraded from the Flintstones to the Jetsons as far as the ride.

I purchased this kit 2/27/17 and they were placed in my car 3/13/17, I bought theses expecting they would last. Here I am 9/25/18 having to replace again. I will never order this garbage again. Extremely disappointed in the product and the company for not taking any accountability for this defective part.

Bought these for my 2012 ram 2500. My old joints had 125000 miles on them and were badly worn out causing the truck to wander a lot on the highway. I bought this kit and it has made a wold of difference.

The steering is much tighter now and I can tell there is less lateral movement when taking exits and on ramps at higher speeds. The stabilizer has makes it so even large bumps in the road have little to no effect on the steering wheel.

The only downside that really isn’t a functional downside is that setting and torquing the track bar is a bit tedious but once it is done it is deffinately worth it. All in all this kit will make some very good improvements to the drivability of your truck!.

Upgrade was easy with correct press cups. Carli equals quality. Diesel power shipped my order ahead of schedule. Thank you!!

Still waiting on my kit it’s back ordered. They were really quick to respond to my questions

I would buy these again They are going on my 47 Chevy Coupe

No trouble installing in the control arms.

Using parts on a 28 model A all parts bought are excellent

These struts are great. My car rides like when it was new. Easy to install.

Perfect replacement. Alot of work but we’ll worth it. All the parts fit well and alignment came out perfect.

Fast shipping, great price, quality parts, perfect fit. Highly recommend 1A Auto and will definitely buy from them again.

Great parts. Good quality. Fit great just like the original ones did.

Decided to build my Jeep with new steering and suspension. Purchased the bundle package for front and rear, parts were in stock and arrived within days. All replacement parts went on easily, better quality than factory.

I added 2. 5 in lift kit and very pleased with the handling and performance of this purchase. I did brakes as well. Great prices, choices, parts better than factory, nice upgrade to my 4×4! Thank you for your services! Happy customer once again.

Ordered struts and upper and lower control with ball joints along with rear shocks. The delivery was timely and the parts fit without any problems. Buying from 1A Auto save me $300. 00 even with expedited 2 day shipping!!! Overall savings was $2,500.

00 from to a Tire Store’s estimate for parts and labbr!!!.

Parts broke in less than a year! Do not recommend.

Received quickly with free shipping. Everything fitted perfect and seems to be of good quality. Only time will tell but seems a lot tighter and a smoother ride. Very satisfied, will use AM for other needs.

All parts were quality replacements for the factory items. A great value to replace front end suspension as a kit instead of dealing with individual components. No “instructions” included, but it should be self evident how everything fits.

1a has a great video library to aid with most projects as well. This kit made a significant improvement in the handling and steering on my GMC 1500, and was well worth the cost and half day of work doing the installation.

Everything fit as it should as far as control arms and ball joints didnt get to install tie rods and already had updated sway bar end links. Good solid kit for a daily pavement beater.

These parts fit perfectly and were for my Jeep. Its like driving a new car. Perfect steering after alignment completed. Its like driving a new ride. Definitely recommend

This was my first purchase, I was very happy with the product quality, all parts were a perfect fit. I would recommend this kit to anyone needing a replacement set.

The parts were a perfect fit. I have never had any problems with troq parts so knowing that . I will be buying more part from you all in the near future.

Fit was perfect, install was by web advice (freeze/heat). I didn’t purchase an expensive shim device to stabilize before install, but took apart a gap feeler device, placed appropriate shims on either side of rod between rod and crank for a firm fit.

Installed with crank at BDC. Had to hammer lightly on left half with a rubber malet to get cases together. Bilke runs like brand new.

Works great. Fixed my rod knock on my kx250

All the gaskets for doing the crankshaft work, but the kit kit not come with the head or cylinder gasket. I missed something in the description ???? Normally a gasket kit includes ALL gaskets. No worries, it’s still 2 weeks until race time and i should have checked it out sooner.

Great Prices Great Service.

I have always watched there UTube how too videos but never ordered parts. This was the 1st thing i bought from A1 Auto and i am so sad i didnt start shopping sooner. Since this purchase i have bought several other parts from them.

Ao far only complaint i have is for this kit the tie rod hole on the lowet control arm was a slight to small. NOTHING a drill couldnt fix. Simply ran a drill bit through it and we were all good to go.

They have my money and im spreading the word to as many people as I can. THANKS A1 AUTO KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.

Beyond happy. The parts all top of the line, bolted up great. Going to be staying with A-1 auto!

The gasser kit is good, I put it on my 63 chevy ii drag car. It should be noted that everything is really heavy duty and seems pretty heavy. The leaf springs are definitely stiff enough for a big block, I ended up removing two leafs for a lightweight smallblock.

Also the straight axle is good but it makes the car sit up high enough to where you dont have to radius the rear quarters for big tires, since I have radiused fenders I ended up swapping it for a 4″ drop axle from speedway.

The last picture included is with the dropped axle.

Its a good kit, making it from scratch would be a lot harder I would think. The instructions for the kit and brake kit are mostly useless and are kind of vague. also if you cant weld yourself beware, I cant weld so I had to find a mobile welder and that didn’t work because they all wanted an arm and a leg to do 12″ of weld.

I was lucky to find a close to home welder that fixed me up nice for a reasonable price. Some hardware was missing but customer service did help with that on my first call, the other three times I just went to store.

I think a video of someone putting this kit together would make a huge difference, especially for a person who has not been wrenching for many years, I used a lot of the pictures from the hotrod magazine article.

I don’t know if I would do it again but well see how it performs on the road, im currently not done the rest of the car but I hope it all works out.

I bought this kit to go under my Chevy II and it bolted right on. It did take more than one weekend, but that was expected. I like the kit overall, but the hardware than comes with it is very cheap, grade 5 bolts and nylon lock nuts.

I upgraded to grade 8 and metal lock nuts, plus some bolts were missing, on one of the u-bolts broke before it was even torqued down. The instructions aren’t very clear and there are few helpful pictures.

Overall a fair kit for the money, just be aware that the bolts are cheap and the instructions are vague.
