Time to take care of the front end

[Bugsiegel]

I anticipate having to deal with front bearings in the next few weeks/months.

I have about 135k miles on my ST2. I haven't done much up there other than a first set of bearings a few years back.

While the truck is in, what else should I be maintaining up front.

shocks, bushings, ect....what 's up there?

Mine needed ball joints about 130K. I replaced the shocks and sway bar bushings 110K. Body mounts about 125K. Ask them to look at all the rubber under there. I am over $1000. into my wife's jeep suspension and bushings and its not done yet. Someone once said that if you replace the rubber in the suspension, you have a new vehicle. I am sure that you will see a big difference in yours. Ed

Like Ed said have them check all of your lube points. i believe all the points are sealed on sport tracs but have them check anyways. If they look depleted or flat you will want to consider either replacing them soon or having them fill it. With out any lube inside the points its just metal on metal and is horrible for them, why ford went with sealed i have no idea....
