Maybe it's not age really but the miles I've put on my body over the years in this trade, Took in a 2002 Chevy Express 1500 High Top Conversion van, Needed.....
Lower Ball Joints
Upper Ball Joints
Upper Control Arm Bushings
Steering gear Box (Leaking)
Both Idler Arms
Steering Link (To the Center Link)
Wasn't any point in putting it on my lift as it's too tall to get it up to a decent working height so I did it on Jack Stands...... I used to bust these out on my knees & back like nothin'. My back is on FIRE right now & my knees don't feel much better. This is the LAST time I do a frontend rebuild on the ground!
The good news.....I do have a Challenger 14,000 pound extended length drive-on 4 Post Lift with 2 air over hydraulic rolling jacks on order. Had the concrete poured a month ago but the lift is on backorder like everything else.
This is a stock photo of the lift.....
