I'm looking to buy and replace all the front-end parts (steering, suspension, and various bushings) for my 97 F-350 and was wondering if someone could provide me with a complete list of what I need to get.

Goals are to tighten everything up and improve off-road capability. I'm going to primarily use this for a bug-out and off-road vehicle, with occasional on-road duties but not often.

 

Leaf bushings
Tie rods
ball joints
stabilizer links
stabilizer bushings
steering box adjust or replace
drop pitman arm if you lifted front
loxktite pitman arm to steering box
rag joint replace
Panhard inspect for wear and loose brackets

Could go with bigger and cheaper 1ton chevy tie rods and DOM tubing but have to change taper on knuckle

 

Thanks knottyrope.

I wasn't sure what the last line, "Panhard inspect for wear and loose brackets" means.

 

Panhard is the bracket and track bar from Diff to Frame. When worn it can make for sloppy steering. Also good to keep the tack bar parallel to ground

 

Cool. Thank you.
