There is always going to be a percentage of folks that have front end
problems, and if you have a forum for chatting about problems, you will
read
about a lot of problems. Not too many forums about good front ends to see
how many have not had issues.
I only have ~130,000 on my '03 2500 CTD with about 25k of that towing the
5th. I've replaced two front U-Joints around 40-50k miles ago. If you
read
the forums, everyone is getting new upper and lower ball joints at 30-50k
miles. Not me, and I can't explain it. I don't 'baby' my rig. Maybe its
cause I only rotate my tires once, and only after towing the 5th for 10k
miles straight. Tires have great even wear when I'm done with them.
