    It’ll feel like crap for a bit after clearing LV. Once it settles in it should be good again

    so you wanna work on my old truck?
    do you have a spring compressor or any knowledge of front suspension stuff
    some of those nuts looking possibly challenging to remove from age and mild crust

    Do you need a new suspension? It looked like it was riding pretty level and fine last time I saw it

    Is your truck leaning hard when you turn? Is it bouncing like a boat when you hit bumps in the road? Is it nose diving when you brake?

    it doesn't bounce much at all, maybe a little ... its just real bad jarring on the rough roads
    i suppose it depends on how fast i am turning, like on the freeway entrance ramps?

    I knew it was coming. Still glad I washed the truck. Took a picture of it this morning in the rain I will post up tonight.

    oh wait what?

    i got a pro quote for this work, they balk at using my own supplied wholesale OEM parts for one ...i could save over $100 on parts alone

    the total price for new front suspension parts, (shock absorbers,new strut mount and LBJs) was over $1500! and i got 2 quotes for that

    You have options if you don’t want to fix it yourself or pay someone else to do it
