Looking at adding another 1ton to the fold.

4wd, 4dr, long bed, 7.3/6spd.

About how much would it cost to replace the steering, unit bearings, rotors, and balljoints all in one shot? The pickup I'm looking at runs well, but the steering is hellaciously loose and I'm pretty sure it needs all of those things.

Anyone have a ballpark figure?

The rig is pretty physically beat overall, but for the price they're asking I might be willing to accept it if I can get all that stuff replaced for around $2k...

the 04 we have, well the LF hub is $350 at Napa. So both hubs is $700.
The rest of the ball joints and tie rod ends are normal. Probably another $500 For those steering components.
Have not done brakes or rotors yet.


If you are doing the work $2k should not be a problem.
