CV front end wear, bushings, seals etc.

Post by WhitsEnd »

Having a local yard pull a CV IFS module tomorrow from a 2007 with 150k miles. From your experience, what should I plan on replacing before I stuff it under my F100?

Thanks for any input.

Wear and consumable items like bushings, bearings, races, rotors (unless they mic OK), brake pads, hoses, ball joints.

It might be more cost effective to replace certain components.. for example, new Moog lower control arms are $41 each from Summit Racing. That might be only a few dollars more than the bushings themselves... unless you go with poly bushings.
