can i get a little help here???????????

 

What do you mean feels like crap? Noise? Clunks? Handling?

Umm get new bushings. As far as I know, you can get them from Sewell. Not sure about the brake calipers though. Bushings shouldn't hurt the pocket much if you can do the installation yourself.

I don't know much, but if a part is bad then just change it even if its not the source of the problem.

 

what he said^

and PLEASE.. PLEEEASE use some periods in your run on sentence... it makes reading really difficult.

it can be a multitude of problems but mainly due to worn out suspension components.

Worn steering rack bushings, control arm bushings, sway bar bushings

worn out tie rod (inner or/an outter) worn out LBJ, UCA BJ, end links... etc etc

if youre catching my drift.

Double check to see if everything is bolted down securely.
