    Used suspension parts are so over looked. Something wears out at 500, 600, 700 thousand miles. 9/10 people go to dealer, instead of salvage and find one that somebody rolled over when it had 150K on it. Buy the part(s) for 20 cents on the dollar.

    Everything you see there for under $1000 US. Just surface rust. Other than needing cam bushings and wheel seals it was good.

    I got a used front hub, and rim for my truck for $200 installed. Wrench used the bearing from the used hub as well. Start to finish, tire remounted, the whole nine in under an hour, and he did it with his mobile truck lol.

    I gave him $300.

    Had a slack adjuster go bad on front drive, he yanked one off of one of their ProStar's that a driver got in a collision with. Had a 125,000 miles on it. $75 installed.
