I'm considering rebuilding the front end myself. Don't know how difficult this is going to be. This is a 1989 2WD truck with 174,000 mi.

Gotta do my research on this job including searching this site for others' experiences/posts.

If anyone can offer some general tips/knowledge/cautions?
If I do this, dues it matter where I get the new bushings, ball joints, etc.?

Thanks!
