i took it to meineke today. the guy test drove then looked at it, then he showed me the ball joints and how they wer worn and the shocks and steering stabalizer, and the u joints. he said it needs to be replaced soon. I took my truck to the dealer and they said the only thing they found wrong with it was the u-joint. (BS) soo i dont know. suprisingly..mieneke said the same thing midas did...except without the pinion seal leak. mieneke is also 300$ more expensive to fix.

lower ball joints(2)
upper ball joints(2)
Front axle u-joint (2)
Rancho steering stabalizer
Sensa track shock(x4)
pinion seal

is the rancho steering stabalizer a good choice? or are the other ones out there for a good price? same with the shocks...how are the sensa track shocks? would they be good for this truck or no? would i want something better?

If you haven't actually bought this truck yet why don't you just go look for one that isn't all ****ed up?
