Welllll the time has come to throw some money at the truck and see what sticks. Plan on doing a rebuild of the front end here soon. I just want to make sure I have everything in my shopping cart that I will need and see if there are suggestions as to other stuff I should replace while I am at it. So if you have any recommendations or see I am missing something please let me know!
On that note...
(2) Rotors
(2) Calipers
(2) Set Brake Pads
(2) Wheel Bearing & Hub Assembly
(2) Outer Tie Rod End
(2) Lower Control Arm
(2) Upper Control Arm
(2) Struts & Coil Springs
(2) Sway Bar End Link
(2) Sway Bar Bushing
(2) Caster/Camber Bolts
Oh and I forgot... does anyone know the sizes of the upper control arm bolts?! I'm hoping I can just pick up some grade 8's and I don't have to get them from the stealership! I cannot find them online to order anywhere... They quoted me $190 for both upper and lower arm bolts.
I remember 2 years ago when I added the front leveling kit how much fun I had trying to get the bolt out of the bottom part of the strut that runs though the LCA, so I'm sure with this list there will be quite a few curse words and energy drink cans thrown out!
