Im looking to start replacing everything from tie rods to possibly even the front end itself. The only problem is I dont exactly know where to start. What parts are usually the first to go, and which brands are the best to go with? I have the torsion keys cranked all the way. Have had them that way for a year now with no problems yet. The truck has 137,000 miles on it so im expecting something to give way. Just dont know what to look for.

I just did mine with mevotech parts they aren't as expensive as moog but since I work with moog every day I feel they are of the same quality or maybe even a little better.

Seems you did better than me... I've replaced almost everything on my front end. Rack and pinion, tie rod ends and lower control arm are next on my agenda. I have to get my rear end rebuilt first then I can go from there. I went all Moog, I couldn't find enough info on Mevotec products so I went with what I know. I guy put a thread up not long ago about his Mevotec failure, but that's the first I've heard it and everyone else seems to like them.

I would say if it ain't broke don't mess with it!

I put on mevotech sway bar links and they're good quality. Going to go with mevo for the rest of my build.
