              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 .

                              A few months back my passenger side mirror fell out . The part the mirror itself attached to exited at the same time so I went to the auto part store and got a lens and glued it in with RTV. It didn't look bad enough to bug me but , I just didn't get the angle quite right for checking for cars and had to move my head about 6" down to the right to make sure it was clear and was afraid I was going to be running over someone to my right or someone in front of me that braked while I was doing this contortion . I was thinking on spend another $15 and gluing another lens on that one and change the angle for the better. But then one day I checked Amazon for a power mirror. $45 I ordered that thing up . Here's some before and after shots. Click image for larger version
