I posted this over on the off road forum but probably should have posted it here first. I've had my '02 Envoy for a year and a half, it now has 107,000 miles. Replacing the wheel hubs & CV drive shafts have been on my to-do list, the passenger hub is starting to whine so I need to get these parts and git'er done.
My question is while I have the front end torn apart, what else would you replace? Struts, upper ball joints & sway bar links are new. I'm going to install new brake dust shields, rotors & pads. calipers seem OK but with 16 years maybe they should get on the list. Also going to install new lower control arm / lower ball joint assembly. I just don't want to put old parts back on and regret it later. Any input from your experience is greatly appreciated! I did get a suggestion to go through the 4WD disconnect, yep probably should plan on that. Steering is tight but might be good to replace the tie rod ends. What about seals? Thanks in advance!
