I am having trouble finding a vendor that offers a front end 'rebuild kit' for my 2003 Yukon Denali.

any suggestions would be great. there are alot on Ebay, but quality (feedback on parts) seems poor.

Front end parts dont really come in kits, poly bushings excluded. Go to rockauto and buy what you need. Moog is generally good stuff.

Just price shop all the parts and pieces. I just did inner and outer tie rods, front rotors and pads, shocks all the way around, AC belt, and a new harmonic balancer on the wife's Av for just a tick over $600. Just walking into any FLAPS or even shopping RA exclusively, made the parts bill $700-800. Only thing I didn't account for and should have, was a new belt tensioner for $40.

Next time I have some loot, it will be time to replace the upper and lower ball joints, axle seals, 4wd actuator, intermediate steering shaft and bushing, trans filter, and complete fluid exchanges. Just another $400 to flush away.

Most of the stuff I bought in one picture.

i'm gonna bet there was a hammer involved in getting the old rotor off the hub...

The other side was worse. Take that pile of rust and triple it. My 1.8 kilo mini-sledge got a workout. Best part is now the brakes really work. Didn't even upgrade to the GMT900 front brakes, yet. Those Hawk LTS pads and the rotors will just about put you through the windshield without triggering the ABS.
