Had to replace the spindle as a piece got broken dragging it up the rollback . Also replaced all ball joints and changed the upper A arms with ones I grabbed off the parts truck as they had better bushings .I aslo later changed the front differential as the bearings were shot and it sounded like the brakes were metal to metal or another hub was about to leave .....even after ai replaced the other one a week before because of said noise . Its been together all summer and I bought new tires for the front . I also cranked the tops of the wheels as far as they can go and the wear for the past 2 months looks great but will get a pro to do it after getting new A arms with bushings already loaded as me trying to put new ones on the old arms just ruined the new bushings .

Replaced the front arms with bushings and balljpints already loaded on them . Had it lined up by the guy slot of my car guy friends swear by . Bob Holland in Greenfield In . He take his time and gives you the specs it came in with and what the range is and what you have when the vehicle left . I think he may do 3 to 4 cars a day . Only $115 . And the truck has never handled better .
