Doing a suspension rebuild

Completely rebuilding the suspension on my truck, it's a 1994 ford f150 4x4 xl with 5 speed transmission. Could someone give me a complete list of parts or a very detailed diagram of what I'll need to buy? Restoring the truck so I want to get absolutely everything. Thanks in advance.

How far are you tearing it apart? Radius arm, axle pivot and sway bar (if equipped) bushings. Ball joints, steering linkage (tie rod ends, adjustment sleeves, drag link), shocks. If removing the radius arm from the axle you might want the bolt and stud that hold them together as they can be a bear to get apart.

Why not look at a parts diagram and start writing down numbers? That's all anyone here would do, unless you're wanting someone to do it for you?

Axle pivot bushings, radius arm bushings, upper and lower ball joints, sway bar end links, shocks, drag link, driver's inner tie rod, both outer tie rods, both tie rod adjusting sleeves, axle shaft u-joints (x3), spindle bearings and seals, wheel bearings and seals, brake pads, calipers and rotors.

I did all that to my 94 Bronco a few years ago. I also replaced the spring buckets and brake dust shields because they were rusted out.

Thank you, that's perfect. I'll be replacing the spring buckets as well, trucks from up north where they salted the roads, so there's plenty of rust on mine.
