Working perfect! Replaced that ASD relay yesterday, no surging on cold start but decided to test the TPS and it had some weird readings. Replaced that today, and wow what a difference. Truck starts and idles perfect right away, didn't realize before but it would start and kinda rev a bit then drop to idle.

As far as the ball joint goes, it actually was not what was making the clunking. The left rear shock feels like its broken. I can move it back and forth, feels like its broken toward the top but cant tell for sure because the shaft part of the shock is covered. When it moves it reproduces the sound im hearing while driving perfectly.

I'll probably still do the ball joints soon, the one does have a little play. But it can wait a few weeks untill i get some more $$

Thanks again for the advise everyone..

 

i had a rear shock wear down the center of the lower bolt and rattle.
part of the bolt was about 9/16 and the center was only about 3/8..

ball joints are a pain... eat your wheaties.

 

Thanks for posting back with the fix! I wish everyone would do that. It makes life easier when the OP posts the resolution. I've searched so many threads that have the same problems I have then the thread dies.
