Sorry posted this in drive train, but I bet it belongs here.
My F250 has gotten sloppy over the years with clanks and clunks sounding off from the front end. Recently I had a set of bushings replaced that seemed to help. The ones that have to be cut off along the frame just behind the wheel assembly. Like I said it helped but things are still noisy and bumpy.
What is the best way to go about getting back the sweet ride?
Shocks are on the list, but there has to be some tried and true things to do.

re: sloppy ride
A lot of it depends on WHEN it clunks and clanks, but things to check are the king pins, wheel bearings, shocks, spring mounts, drag link and tie rod ends, etc. Look for loose bolts and nuts, also.
Oh, and don't forget the steering gear box!
