Just though I share some pictures of my work. Changed the upper and lower control arms, inner and outer tie rods. It was a pain in the *** due to this truck never having much service during its 23 years in being used. Took me almost a week( due to the driver lower control arm not fitting properly). Bought everything from rockauto using the brand mevotech: imgur.com/a/3IfcE1S |

The lower control arm had trouble fitting in where it lines up with the frame. I’m guessing it was too thick I even tried shaving it down a bit to see if it would fit but wouldn’t work. Only one side would line up but the other side wouldn’t, even after using a mallet. So I messaged rock auto asking for a replacement and had to wait almost week to get to me. The second control arm went in smoothly.
And thank you!💪 I plan on keeping this truck for years(hopefully) so I want to do my own maintenance on it
