It will be about 471.45 with all moog and urethane bushings from energy suspension

Don't forget the cost of grease and labor for having your bushings and ball joints pressed.

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MOG-ES409LT/

You need two inner and two outer tie rods, and two upper and two Lower ball joints

Total cost is $471.45

After this go with a one tone away bar up front with urethan middle bushings and stock side rubbers

Don't worry about bump stops or adjusting sleeves. More than likely the stock ones are just fine

Re: Does any one have this?

What INSIDIOUS 86 said, but go through Rockauto. Same parts 25-45% cheaper and if you google "rockauto coupon" you can find a code for another 5% off! I am looking to do my suspension soon too, here are part #s of what I have compiled so far. Not all inclusive I am sure. All #s are moog/timken parts.
My truck is an 85 if it makes a difference.

Upper ball joints K6136
Lower ball joints K6117T
Upper arm bushings x2 K6138
Lower arm bushings x2 K6137
Idler arm K6247T
Pitman arm K6143
Tie rod ends ES409RT x2 ES409LT X2
Tie rod adjusters ES2004S x2
Wheel bearings outer x2 SET3
Wheel bearings inner x2 SET6
Bearing seals x2 8871

Please feel free to add to this, I may have forgotten something. I only want to tear it apart once!
