2003 4x4 susp. advice needed

[uhaul]

I am buying a 2003 4x4 Eddie Bauer that I would like to know all the usual stuff that needs attention in this models suspension, I have noticed the front tires "cup" real bad (angled surface on all tread blocks) causing tire hum. If you can throw all the "known problems" at me, I am willing to fix them all at once.

ball joints, inner tierod ends, check control arm bushings for wear and cracking, sounds like it is due for new shocks.

hub wheel bearing assembly's can go bad just check them well don't replace if no noise or movement.

alot of us upgrade to powerstop drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads on all corners to just a thought

If you are towing I recommend the air lift coil spring helpers. They are bags that go inside the rear coils that take away trailer hop, I've been using them for years. Also depending on mileage, I'd replace the coil springs. I also have rancho 9000 adjustables and they are fantastic as well.
