90 bird bearings in an 85 maro?
 
Will the later bearings fit in my earlier camaro? Easier to just get the whole assembly?
Also, will the shocks from an astro from around the same year fit in there? Any type of parts that will smooth out my front end and back shocks?

Oh! And also would the shocks and front end parts from an older third Z28 lift the front end on my V6 too much or would it be pretty kick a**?
Thanks

Depends on which bearings... most will interchange.

No, AFAIK Astro shocks will not fit. Front or rear.

These cars don't have shocks up front; pretty much rules that out from the get-go. They have struts.

Struts don't "lift" the front end. So no, if you're talking about struts, won't affect ride height. Only thing that really does, is springs. So whether "parts" would raise it, depends on whether springs are included in "parts".

Gotta be a bit more specific.

There must be about 100 bearings in a car. Which bearings are you talking about?

Front wheel bearings. Last time it was insured and ever reallly moved was 08. Needless to say it rides rough and needs a full tune up and almost everything needs to be maintained. Can feel absolutely everything on the road. Mostly front end im thinking. I have gotten some parts but i may need more. The rotor and bearings/assembly on the 90bird at the junkyard is almost brand new. Took the engine from it and that is how the car is moving.

Front wheel bearings are 79-88 A/G, 82-92 F, and 82-97 2wd S/T trucks.
