J's truck. We put new tires on it before we took it in. So now I need to put a tie rod, sway bar bushings, & ball joints. So we are basically just going to rebuild the front end while we are under there.

Thanks Gerry, I don't want it either.
Its definitely a lot of work now but since it still has to be aligned, might as well do it right. Besides the price of alignment has jumped from the last time I had to have one done.

I know all about beating, hammering, and heating, and all that stuff....lol. Of course when I did the hub assembly this summer it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

You don't want me to run a c-clamp ball joint press. I press 'em the wrong way
Gerry - they only differentiate between cars and trucks at my dealership, not between truck class until you get to the really big stuff (450's and 550's)
