Well..put the truck in to get the PST Kit done today..
I told them I wanted "Front Bushings and Ball Joints" done...should I have told them spindles and shocks aswell? Because I mean, the cause for 2½ hours labor for each side, is to get the spindle and shock OFF (after that, the control arms and balljoints come right off) I dunno, if they don't put the new spindles and shocks on, I'm gonna be PISSED! (Cuz I mean, they had the spindles and shocks OFF, it would have been no more work to just use the new ones, ya know?) Well..here's to hoping.
P.S.- As for my leaks...I tracked em all down. The power steering is leaking from the fitting that screws into the pump..no problem there. The leak from the tranny is the dipstick fill tube..no problem there (got a new one) Still gotta take the truck down and have a mechanic professionally tune the carb. (It kinda hesitates off idle) But...I STILL GOTTA GET PASSED SMOG!
