front suspension re-fresh
 

I am getting ready to do a little front suspension refresh on my 03 4.6is that has 121K miles currently. The control arm bushings are shot, so that is driving this work.

So far I ordered the powerflex upper CA bushings and stock lowers.
I will also replace the upper CA ball-joints with OEM, but leaving lowers for now as they are not replaceable w/o replacing the entire arm, and last I checked they were just fine.

Plus doing powerflex swaybar bushings and endlinks as long as I'm in there.

Next up will likely be struts, but I want to see how this tightens things up first.

Anything else I should consider while I'm in there?

I'm doing the same thing on my 2002 4.4i in a month or so.

You should also replace the steering rod link assemblies (ball joint end and the inner joint).
