This is sort of an open letter to PST.
First up you cannot beat the price and the parts came in a timely manner.
Observations:
Lower ball joints come with only 1 cotter pin, this seams to be an industry standard. It takes 3 to install, if you are going to replace one why not all three.
Idler, pitman and inner tie rod ends not part of the kit. These may not wear as bad as the rest but bet in most restorations they replace it all.
For an additional cost maybe have an enhanced kit.
No torsion bar boots or clips, these need to come off to replace the lower control arm bushings, not all cars have ones that can be reused.
No sway bar bushings, these are pretty cheap and the end ones on the C-body will need to be replaced.
The inboard ones are pretty much part of the bar and on all three I looked at they were in great shape.
I only addressed the wear items as I had no plans to replace any of the hardware as all mine cleaned up nicely.
