Alignment issues on the truck! Some trucks have them and some don't.....they put them on to help keep the truck from pulling to one side or the other. Usually it's on the passenger side.

Mine had one on the right side when I pulled it apart this weekend...threw it in the trash. Can't tell a difference in the driving so far??

Ahhh gotta love it, these front ends are JUNK!! I'd take it back and tell them what's up and see if they will re-align it for you. My buddy Mike had all sorts of problems trying to get his to quit pulling, I don't think he ever got it to quit....made it better but it always pulled a tad bit.

That is not all that is wrong though,when I had my shocks put on they aligned the front end. apparently they didn't tighten up my lower stabilizer bar it was loose. The Guy I took it to said this might work so he tightened it up and a couple days later it started popping again.So I think I am going to have to get another lower stabilizer bar.

Do you mean the sway bar?? I wouldn't think that the sway bar would be bad, maybe just the bushings that mount it to the axle and on the top.... my front end pops too.....but that's my suspension doing that
