I didn't go with a kit. Got the box from Napa for 179 - cheaper than anywhere else for the same rebuild brand - Cardone. Got the Pitman arm from LMC for 39 (only place I could find one). Draglinks came from Advance Auto, TRW brand, for 50 total. Tie rod ends I got from Napa, but can't recall the price since I did those a couple of weeks ago. I did try a Napa draglink, but it was a pain in the butt, spun when torqued. So did their tie rod ends, for that matter. I guess the lesson learned there may be not to grease the joint until after you've installed and torqued it, or it might spin as you try to torque it down. Either that or Napa ball joints are crap, which is very possible.
