    Looking to rebuild the front end. Kind of on a budget to do it. I'm looking into rock auto for the parts. So the best bang for my buck is what I'm looking at.

    tie rod ends, sway bar end links, and new lca's should fix ya up. new struts all around if in the budget cant hurt either. and an alignment after you install it all.

    I've been having issues when rolling to a stop. It sways side to side in the front, tie rods have been chaecked CV's have been replaced. So right now I'm almost certain it's the struts, and control arm bushings.

    hubs could be shot if the fronts pulling or your brakes could be bad if its pulling one way only.

    Best mod hands down to handling I've done so far is the "anti - pogo" spacers. Just pick up two front subframe cups from any w- body from like 1995-2008 and swap the top cup on your front struts. Cheap, and makes everything feel much firmer, and takes maybe 5 minutes?
