Are all MOOG parts lifetime? U don't mean when the asphalt is carved out where vehicles' tires track? Cause I've seen that occur @ various intersections, including 1/2 from home; usu. a problem w/ wide( or wider) tires.
-Did u replace intermediate shaft w/ a GM or a MOOG part? I need to do this.

Ya, $125 on the pod last I checked. Hopefully not more, cause I still don't have mine.

What about pics of her?
That was just for the front conversion. I have the caliper brackets and some parts for the rear, but I have to convert from drum to disc before I can do that.

I don't know if ALL MOOG parts are lifetime? The intermediate shaft was replaced by Chevy at the dealership. I heard of some better replacements, but so far I have had a better time with the original being replaced by Chevy. I won't say its 100% better, but it does the job for now.

As far as the truck tracking, it does it on its own. Never used to before, just got progressively worse over time. Now it's to the point where I almost don't want to drive the truck because the steering is so sloppy. But, hopefully after Saturday this will all be taken care of and the steering will be much more solid. To add, there was alot of play with the front wheels when you rock them side to side.

There are pics of my wife and I lingering around... heh heh.

I actually found mine at a Performance Shop about 12 years ago this January. Getting wheels on her Probe. I woulda married her sooner if she was driving a Chevy, but eventually she came over to the dark side. She has the 08 Burban in my sig now.

I'd heard u have to grind on the calipers to make em fit our trucks! Is that true? That'd be a pity! They're soooo purdy. Any details or close up pics on this would be ideal!!

Any idea on who makes a better Intermed. Shaft. I need 1 & the IRRITATING noise is pissin me off!

As for your other comments.
