    Front suspension @140 K

    Took the Marauder to get the oil changed,
    They gave me the news about the wear and tear after
    14 years old on the 30th, and 140 K Miles.
    Upper and lower ball joints, tires, shocks.
    I got the ball joints done, that was a biotch!
    Had to freeze the parts and heat the control arm,(s)
    Took all day , but the results were worth it.

    Just ordered shocks and struts , a new intercooler pump,
    Spark plugs, 02 sensor, and a TPS from Rock Auto.
    Much maintenance needed too !
    Trans service , plugs , diff oil change, clean intake+ filter.
    So much stuff, I get skerd that this is gonna break me.

    Just did a bunch of that myself, engine, some suspension, etc. I’m at 114K, haven’t done the ball joints yet.

    Did a new PCV and EGR valve, but no TPS or O2.

    What shocks and struts did you get? I’m looking at the Ridetech HQ’s soon.

    My order from Rock Auto is due today,
    I got an email from Fed Ex yesterday ,that the
    Order had an error on my unit #, in the address.
    Kinda' wierd because I only ordered once,
    One of three shippers had it correct !
    I went with Monroe heavy duty , struts & shocks.
    A new Bosch intercooler pump , TPS, set of spark plugs A/C copper 104.
    Now it is tire time .

    Front suspension @140 K

    I got the KYB rears. Haven’t decided 100% on the fronts yet. There was a thread about Ford offering an OEM front coilover, so maybe an option.
