Got all my parts in now and about to take the liberty to a neighbor for parts replacement.
New ball joints, tie rod ends, upper and lower arms, struts and shocks rr speed sensor, and plugs. Then new tires and a front end alignment.
Then......tow brackets and tow bar, brake system and wiring.
Does it ever end?
Update. Since last post I bought a 6000lb Roadmaster falcon Towbar from a friend who upgraded to 10,000lb. $100! yay me!
I saw that our local camping world in bossier City was advertising $59 install fee on any part so I ordered invisibrake, tow brackets and wiring from them. Saved $2300 in labor from 2 other quotes from other local RV dealers. (I've bought 2 RVs from one of these.)
Install was done in promised time. All is well except some intermittent problem with dash light toad brake indicator.
I also replaced sway bar on rear of Forester and front sway bar links on Jeep. Headed to Yellowstone this friday. First long run with set up. Shorter trip to Mississippi coast, 300 miles, got 9.1 MPG with toad connected. Happy happy.
Congratulations! Very happy with my Roadmaster Falcon and Invisibrake. Safe travels!
