front end kit 71 olds
 
Hi
I'm looking for a front end kit for my 71 Olds. I'm from Ontario, Canada so I would like to order it from a supplier here. Looking for made in Canada or USA. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

You need to be a little more specific. Are you looking for suspension parts? Steering parts? Fenders, hood, grilles? All or just part of the list?

There is a lot to the front end of a car.

Sorry, its a 71 olds Cutlass S. I want to update all bushings and steering parts along with shocks and springs. I hear you can buy a kit that comes with everything you need.
Thanks

I haven't seen a complete kit like that. you can get a bushing kit from somewhere like energy suspension that would include all of the bushings for the entire car, but I'm not sure about just the front end. I know they sell individual pieces like end links, sway bar bushings and even control arm bushings, but I'm not sure about just a front end set.

As far as the springs and shocks go those are usually separate items as well due to the many different packages that were available from the factory. Each engine would dictate a different spring rate and shocks to match.

Now you might be able to get something from KYB or Bilstein in a package, but I don't think they do springs unless you are looking at a coil over setup. But you can't do that on the front sooo.....
