Hello folks! I just picked up a 96 with approximately 248k. I got it for my kid and we will be working on it togther. Looking forward to the project and working on it with him on it. With that being said there are lot of maintance items that need to be addressed and im not really sure what would be the smartest place to start. So far the list and or the things we need to do it are:
Change tie rods (parts are ordered planing on doing this saturday.)
Both nuckels
Oil pump gasket and main seal ( slightly leaking)
Suspension I think has never been changed. How do you know if coil springs are bad?
What order would you being doing these end?
At 40 mph and above the steering is pretty sloppy and it feels like it could easily get out of control if the wrong bump was hit. Im assuming this is suspension but not really sure. All four tie rods are garabage thats why im replacing those first
Just looking for advice so I dont make a miilion mistakes.
Thanks for any responses
