    I’m in New Jersey and could use better skids. But if I’m going to put money into it I’d probably go get nice aftermarket ones. What were you thinking on price?

    Meanwhile looking back at my POs build thread. He did wheel bearings at 222k. It’s at 252k and needs them again. My guess is the tie rods (which have play) and upper control arms (which have crappy bushings) are the culprits. Glad I’m tackling them both. Any other guesses?
