All new bushings, new springs, and new shocks for the front end of my f150. 213K miles on it and I’m pretty sure everything minus the shocks hasn’t been touched. Now I just need a weekend to do it.

my old shitter has only had front sway bar links , tie rod ends & shockers all round in 566,000km.

so the F150 hasn’t done too bad.

The bushings on my truck are completely shot so I have to do it. Depending on where the suspension settles after hitting a bump, straight can mean the steering wheel being anywhere from the 1 o’clock position to nearly 3 o’clock.

i’d be more inclined to say more likely idler arm/pitman arm and/or draglink then as well.

If this doesn’t fix it I’ll change those too, but I know the bushings are shot. The bolts clearly aren’t centered I in the bushings. And the shocks and springs probably need to be changed anyway
