Question 2
Must be my shocks, it's a pretty bumpy ride all of the time and when I hit a pot hole BAM! Also when I turn corners I can feel and hear a small thump. I figure I need to replace everything on my front end, does anybody sell a complete kit?

If you here a thump around corners, sounds like your A-arm bushings are bad.

Put your foot up on the front bumper (one side at a time) and try to make the truck bounce, when you step down off, the truck should stop bouncing within a bounce and a half, any more than that you need new shocks, less than that your okay. If you ain't heavy enough, ask your mother-in-law to help.

if you have a pop when turning wheels sometimes thne i would suspect ball joints, grease thjem and then go drive and see if pop exists still
if so thjen greas control arm bushings, and then go for drive again, note any changes in noise |
