Hello all! I have a 2002 1500 Sport 5.9 All stock.
Problem I am having is my truck pulls to the right and it is pretty squirrely on the Hwy when I am on a curve turning to the right or left and hit any kind of little bump or surface change the front seems to lose traction and then the rear and the whole truck gets squirrely (kinda whips around)
This is especially concerning while towing my Travel Trailer.
Any ideas you guys have? Anybody seen/experienced this before? I am going to check my ball joints this weekend and possibly replace the shocks?

 

alignment causes the pulling. This could mean a worn tierod/balljoint or even a wheel bearing. It could also be a steering rack issue(internal slop)

softer style tires and stock stuts/shocks cause the sway and get more pronounced with towing. So, since your stock suspension is 10years old and prob has 100kmi on it, I'd say they would need replacement. Hell, my 10kmi stock suspension has sway around turns and needs replacement.

 

Ok.
I am looking on ebay at this complete tie-rod/balljoint replcement kit http://www.ebay.com/itm/K7424-K7411-...item43ab7078e2
Anybody have experience with these? Pro's/Con's? I like these because they are greaseable. Just not sure of the quality? I was thinking of buying Moog individually but the price for all of this is over twice as much $$$$$$
Then replacing all the shocks.

Also the rack was replaced approx. 1k miles ago. So I think I'm good there at least?
I am installing Firestone ride-rite rear air bags this weekend too, to help with the load in the rear.
