Front end rebuild price

First off hello everyone this is my first post. What I am looking for is a ballpark figure on how much it would cost to rebuild the front end of my car an 87' RS (bushes, steering, struts, strut hats, etc.). Any help would be appreciated. This thing is about to drive me crazy. Can't even drive on the expressway. The strut hat on the passenger side is sitting off center where the strut rod bolts to. So I know the car is out of allignment. Feels like the bearing is going as well, maybe balljoint or tierod. Feels like my brothers car before I changed them. And I feel like I am in an old movie when they shot driving scenes and move the steering wheel back and forth to "look" like they were driving.

Re: Front end rebuild price

Check out rockauto.com. they arre extremely reasonable on prices and have good quality stuff.I priced a set of moog front end parts for around 190. Ball joints wern't included in that though, so I'm thinking you would be looking more in the range of 250

Thanks I will check them out. Just to see how bad the stuff is I thought I would put a picture of the two strut hats as a comparison. First one is the drivers side other two passenger side.
