Any Mi Techs In Here?

Hi, I'm in the Muskegon area (not that it matters), moved down from the soo last year. Anyway, I posted two threads in other forums that nobody has helped with. Wondering if any of you MI techs have some ideas. 1996 F250 4x4 5.8L xcab with 96K miles: 1. When real cold, say below 30, hard to start, turns over fine trys to start and cuts out, does this and you have to floor the gas. Once running it runs real ragged and then magically smooths out. Only does this cold. Done all the basics, i.e. plugs, cap, wire, fuel filter, and I let the fuel pump cycle before turning over. I think it's a sensor or something. 2. The front end (oh my god!). I replaced the ball joints and front axle u-joints last year due the front end camber (tires were splayed out bad). I have always had this clunk, pop noise when turning the wheel at slow speeds. It is most noticeable when it rains or the vehicle is wet.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
