Front end suspension.

HELP PLEASE!!! I have a 1994 Ford F-150 XLT 2WD with a front end suspension problem. I bought the truck back in FEB 2000. The truck has been in the shop 9 times due to suspension problems. The truck has a shimmy, lose steering, and will not hold alinment. The truck had all new tie rods, control arm, steering box, bushings, and the ball joints checked. Why the dealer did not replace the ball joints I don't know. I love the truck, but I would to drive the truck. Can anybody please help???

Front end suspension.

Are there any aftermarket mods on this truck? Lift kit? Larger tires?
Maybe you should try a different shop or maybe a front end specialist. Worn out shocks and/or shock bushings can make for bad shimmy. Oversized tires that may be out of balance can shake a truck also. Just some thoughts. Jake.
