[QUOTE="Shawn Ford, post: 1040783, member: 74772"] I have new strut assemblies, upper extended a arms with uniball joints, similar to the truck lift spacers, lower control arms with lower ball joints, new axles, new power steering pump hoses reservoir and rack new hubs as far as I believe everything new. Now on test drive it looks like the axles are bent or the differential is bent causing the axles to flex. I’m not sure if my old axles were wore out enough to where I didn’t notice it maybe. Could the truxx style suspension lift be that bad? I bought the bdr I think upper control arms. I have new wheels and tires and an alignment for tomorrow morning so hopefully I make it there and home before the front differential explodes. Also the pressure line from the pump has a tiny white Teflon(i think) seal and it leaks cause why not. So I can seem to find one of the same size but there is a dorman replacement that I found but is a touch smaller in diameter. Is the dorman correct and I have to stretch it on or is there a Ford one I can get. What kind of gear oil I’m assuming does the front differential take? If you read it all sorry for being so long winded and I appreciate you reading it all. This thing just has all of my frustration. [/QUOTE]
