    So threw the truck on the rack at work today to get a better idea of what exactly is going on and why my steering is so kooky... Ball joints, tie rods all good. Right side front shock is totally blown and when I put in powersteering the orientation of the steering shaft is upside down to that of the gearbox.

    SO.... Still gonna do Idler and pitman arms, Rear drop leafs (thinking about getting some made vs Beltech) I have my drop spindals already, so really just need shocks at this point.

    I am going to go with the beltech STREET series shocks.


    wu tang~

    Id pay you to ship it to me, I have a certain person who i bring dead red tops and he brings me back brand new ones.

    and you need to do your center drag link while your at it, that usually has a lot of play in it if the other parts are worn also.

    wouldn't we have to pay for special shipping because its corrosive? I know at work we have all kinds of procedures for shipping out dead cores...

    I wouldnt even tell them what your shipping, as long as they dont drop it and damage it (basically do their job right) it would get there in one piece. if its not a hassle find out for me. thanks

    OK Kids! Back at it! In this time I have been away the truck was broken into twice, got a diploma from college, and now I have sitting in my living room a FULL set of Moog ball joints, tie rods, idler arm, pitman arm, SS brake lines, and a full set Prothane Poly bushings.

    Thanks! Oddly enough, I caught the guy breaking into it a second time....He no longer has functional kneecaps...Cops were called, showed up and just laughed at him as they drove him to the hospital. PRETTY AWESOME!
