400 bucks later....
 
Well.. took the truck in.. needed a ball joint.. was cuppin the hell out of my front tires.. (35 inch mud tires) not the best for the road.. but they still roll.. and too expensive to let get trashed.. so that cost me 200 bucks.. had them balanced and rotated.. and had the exhaust re-done.. sounds good now.. and it rolls better .. before it would almost shake me out of the truck.. and my steering was 'loose' .. it seems to take alot less to keep it in a straight drive now.. and it doesnt pull as much.. so for that 400 i got the tires done.. the exhaust (put a glass pack on it) .. and had the upper passenger ball joint replaced.. hope it does the job.. also... i got a set of halo LED headlights.. and a set of LED tail lights ordered.. 150 bucks a set.. they should be in soon.. i will take before and after pics and post them when i get them in

Sounds like a good deal

Sounds like a good deal for sure. I would have done the upper and lower ball joints at the same time instead of just the uppers but still sounds like a good deal. I paid over $700 for my upper and lower ball joints to be changed with parts and labor.

Last weekend I chanaged the upper and lower ball joints on my wifes GMC truck. What a difference it makes!!!!!!!! Almost acts like a new truck.

Thats alot of body lift dude, you can probably crawl between the cab and the frame on your truck

HAHAHA .. oops... i put that sig on there when i first got the truck.. back when i was oblivious to any facts on it.. i went by what the previous ower told me.. when in fact it has a 3" body and a 3" suspension .. for total of 6 is what the pros told me.. it was on when i got it.. but now i wish i would have just lifted my old truck.. but for the price with it already lifted..i couldnt pass it upl.. guess i can change my sig now :S
