how about basic wear and tear items like ball joints, wheel bearings, etc? have you replaced these? how many miles on the BOE suspension? do you have the stock suspension?

 

Ball Joints, Wheel bearings, and all suspension busings were inspected, cleaned, and lubricated during the winter last year while I did the brakes.
The BOE suspension is modified stock suspension. Apox 20k since modificaton.
