I WIN!!!!

After owning this truck for 5 years and 170,000 miles I finally have the front end feeling like a new truck. Here's a parts list:

Stabilizer bushings
Ball joints
Shocks
Calipers and pads
Ambulance rotors
needle bearings
Tie rod ends.

Dang thing was still clunking. Then, I read a post on here that said to open the door and push up on the door opening to rock the truck. So my neighbor and I did that and discovered a wobbled out shock bolt. So, I went a little further and changed

Rough Country Level lift
4 new shocks plus steering stabilizers
New Warn hubs
Pinion seal (rear end)
Carrier bearing

The truck finally feels right and tight!

I am now ready for some new vacuum lines for the EOS, some 19.5" wheels and tires and an alignment to set my steering wheel back to center.

But I totally love driving my truck again. God it sucks driving a rattling, clunking POS. I finally got the truck I always wanted!

 

I hear ya....I hate rattles and clunks too, but Damn, that's alotta coin to fix it.

 

I didn't do it all at once. This was chasing the "clunk" over a period of about 3 years. It is a lot a dough... But i feel victorious!
