Hey all, first post here. Thank you in advance.
I have a 1996 c1500 extended cab long bed I bought from the second owner a few years ago. Got her with about 105k miles, sitting just under 110k now. It’s a yard work/side work truck for me, and it does an amazing job at it.
I went under the truck the other day for the first time in a long time to look at something and was reminded she’s an old girl. Expected amount of surface rust and worn looking rubber pieces for her age.
Is there a one size fits all suspension overhaul/bushing kit you all would recommend? I don’t need top of the line by any means, but it would be nice to get some additional load capacity without sacrificing too much ride quality all while without breaking my piggy bank if at all possible Basically I want everything for nothing.
Any other maintenance not listed for its age/mileage you’d recommend? About all I’ve done in my 3 years and abouts 3000 miles of ownership is couple oil changes, coolant flush, radiator o-ring replacement where one failed, crankshaft positioning sensor, and added the $60 Leer. Also hunting for new interior pieces if anybody has anything local to PNW.
Advice/recommendations appreciated! Pics of list of stuff that previous owner did and photo of her good side for attention.
