hey guys about to do some front end work. my steering rack is leaking pretty bad has been for awhile. figured i am going to replace it before it gets cold. also i am going to replace the lower balljoint and upper control arms. the front end is getting sloppy and the truck has 82,000 on it. any other parts i should replace while i am doing the other parts? thanks mike

 

Might as well change the outer tie rod ends too while you're replacing everything else.

 

i know this is an older post. still have not done my front end but am going to soon. the question i have which i think i know the answer to is when i do my upper and lower ball joints i will not need a front end alignment afterwards? i would just need one after i do the rack and pinion? thanks mike
