Default First time on in a while and got a new truck!

Just wanted to say hi and say I'm happy to have moved from a 2nd gen to my current 3rd gen 2008 Hemi! Is there anything in particular I should keep an eye out for, just turned 94,000. I have noticed a creak in the front end when it's cold and think it might be shocks.

Thanks in advanced for the help!!

Welcome to the forum. Could be anything. Ball joints, tie rods, shocks, etc.

Thanks guys for the info I greatly appreciate it! Should I stick with stock or go aftermarket for the ball joints?
