Front suspension rebuild parts list suggestions
As Mike on Wheeler Dealers would say, the "front suspension feels squidgy".
I will do the manual tests but I figure there are parts that one just replaces when pulling the front suspension apart. Much like when you replace a timing belt you always replace the tensioners and idlers.
Normal use. No tracking. Not looking to buy pretty parts because they are pretty.
Thanks. Appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks, Scraggle. I'm not looking at replacing the shocks at this point. I replaced them five years ago because one of the back ones had started leaking. They only have 25k miles on them.
I'm looking for recommendations on ball joints, tie rods, hubs, etc. What parts should be replaces as part of a front suspension refresh?

I think this post sums it up. I did my shocks, actually was out there Dec 23rd finishing them due to the spring like weather and the shocks did very little to comfort the ride but I will be doing this in the spring...

That's perfect, Chris. Thank you. I'd search but got tons of hits. IMO that thread should be stickied in the suspension section.
