well guys just figured id let you guys know what was goin on. i went to get the truck aligned and found that my upper control arm bushins were shot all to hell. so i went to autozone and ordered me some new bushings at 24 bucks a piece. get them in and went to change them. pulled my arm off and put it on the bench to find out that it isnt the bushings that wear out normally its the control arm shaft that the threads wear out on. so im thinkin damn here goes another pretty penny. so i call my boy up at autozone and have him look up to see if he can get the shaft piece. he said he can only buy it in a kit. the kit comes with the shaft and 2 bushings for 31 bucks. go figure. so now instead of having 100 bucks in 4 bushings i now will have 62 bucks in 4 bushings and 2 shafts. so when you go to replace them buy the kit definetely. and these arent like regular bushings. the bushing itself is just a set of threads that tighen and loosen throughout range of motion so it is very very very important you keep these properly greased or they will not last long at all.

Whats the part number on the shaft? ? ? ? I work at autozone and I couldnt even find the bushings. . Advance had em for 7 bucks a piece. . So if you have the part number, that'd be great. .

im not sure of the part number but as soon as i get my parts i will post them up here. you have to be talking about different bushings lol cuz i checked advance as well cuz its like half a mile down the road and they were the same price.

maybe this will show everyone a little more about what im saying and show just how dangerous this is and the cost of wear and tear on your balljoints and tires especially. should go ahead and say this truck has 216k on the frame and about maybe 2500 since the bag setup on the front.
