Tom,
I got a full rebuild kit on EBAY for a HR front end for about $340. Worked out a lot cheaper than buying the parts separately. The same person also sells the parts seperately for a reasonable price also. Sorry I can't think of his name but he's always on ebay selling front end parts under the HD/HR heading.
The big nuts that screw onto the pins that go through the cross member should be firm. If there sloppy than thats a pretty good sign that there stuffed.
Cheers

i bought a kit off ebay with everything exept the bushes (cheap)
the bushes were tight and there was no slop in the control arms but i figgured that while the front end was out (and that it's my wifes car) i should recon it.
i'll check out ebay and see if i can find that guy.
cheers for the advice
