Hi all.
I am original owner 99 xlt 2wd with 126k miles. Will be keeping it until one of us croaks.
last time it was at a shop they said the front end needed some work. I think they said control arms, cant remember exactly.
I didnt have them proceed because I wanted to see if they really got the a/c working with just a recharge, looks like it worked ( with no a/c I wasnt going to spend any more money on the truck)
anyway before I take it back in, I wanted to get an idea of what a full re-do of the front end wear parts might cost at a shop ? is it wise to replace it all at once rather than just what is really shot ? again I am keeping the truck as long as it is financialy alive.
what do you suggest and best/worst case cost.
I am old and not a mechanic and no garage so really need to pay a shop
forgot to add, rear suspension already converted and tranny rebuilt at about 85k, now at 126k
thanks
