I got a kit for my '66 Polara, no issues in a few years and 3500 miles.

That’s what I used on my ‘70. Pushes in and out of the garage like a dream now.

Its the only part I haven't replaced...due to the others being over $100ea...

Funny you should bring this up. I bought a set and the mating surface was .375" thicker than the LBJ they replaced. There were no markings on my old ones, don't think they were ChryCo originals.
So the increased thickness caused negative camber.
Used offset upper control arm bushings to bring it back into spec.
Your results may vary.

If I had known that I would have mentioned in a member...too late
