rebuilding front end question - Diesel Forum

dansk · 11-19-2009, 10:16 AM

Don't know much about suspension so I thought I would ask here. Van is starting to wander in lanes on the freeway. I have read posts about steering box and adjustment. I think I would like to just replace it. I have a friend with all the tools and knowlege.
I would also like to replace tie rods, bushings etc to make new again. Front end has never been touch aside from alignment.
What do you guys recommend to use and where to get?
I would love to support our sponsers.
Thanks, Dann

Poly control arm bushings and stabilizer bar bushings and end links. Check out your ball joints and tie-rods. Adjust the steering box and save yourself 200 bucks.

I don't know if there are any sponsors on here that carry them or not as most of the sponsor sites I have visited are diesel engine/performance oriented. You can get those parts from the popular performance online sites for sure though.

ON EDIT: Rock Auto will almost definitely have them. they have just about everything.
