Suspension 1985 CJ Laredo Suspension Question

[hoods5]

Hey guys,

I'm looking to renew my 75/K stock Laredo suspension with new leaf bushings, sway bar bushings, pitman arm, steering arm, tie rods, etc. Can anyone suggest a kit or is there a list that I can go by for everything? Which company is better or not? I've always used Moog on my old car restorations and like their stuff but I'm not sure since I'm new to CJ's. I just want rubber not the prothane or energy suspension stuff. It's too hard of a ride and I only ride it on the street.

Also need the same for the rear leaf spring bushings

Thanks all

Dave

I worked at O'reilley's and moog is da best than precision. Stay away from da low end stuff.

Agree on the MOOG parts if looking for stock rubber. I used the Prothane stuff, all in a kit, and am happy with mine. But they are stiffer as you said. Here's some MOOG stuff:

Sway bar end link bushings: MOOG-K90027
Lower ball joint: MOOG-K8195T
Upper ball joint: MOOG-K8194T
Drag link: MOOG-DS911
Drag link end (at pitman arm): MOOG-ES140R
Tie rod end (driver side): MOOG-ES140R_DRIVEROUTER
Tie rod end (passenger side): MOOG-ES62L_RIGHT-OUTER
Tie rod adjustment sleeve: MOOG-ES2004S
Front shackle bushing: MOOG-K3194_FRONT
Rear shackle bushing: MOOG-K3194

I'm not aware that MOOG offers a "kit" with all these parts together as a package.
