Placed my order for 2 outer tie rod ends, L/R UCA's, 2 lower ball joints (all MOOG parts) from RockAuto, $ 328.95. :o
Money I need to spend on other things, like an upcoming wedding for my daughter...

Bad news, Couldn't do the alignment. I need new upper control arms because the ball joints are bad and the lower ball joints are bad too. The tech says my steering rack feels bad too but I don't think it is since there is no ratcheting feel and no pump noise, since there would be with metal in the lines.
So I need to replace the UCA's since the ball joint isn't removable, and replace the lower ball joints as well. May go ahead and replace the outer tie rod ends too at the same time.
Pat, you busy?

Come to think of it I think I should be able to do the work in my driveway. The only thing I'd need is a ball joint press, which I could rent from AZ or Oreilly's. I have everything else to do the work. It's good I don't drive my truck much any more.
About to STORM here. Hear the thunder.
