    Lower ball joint pickle

    there are generally only two sizes. the small one is for tie rod ends, the larger is for ball joints. My garage rule is " He who dies with the most tools wins" so buy both.

    Automatic Height Control repair

    Last of the line Panther Platform Fords and it's cousins could be had with rear height control. If you happen across one in a junkyard the compressor is under a plastic cover behind the driver's headlight. The shocks, hoses and repair clips are all still available.

    Brake Gurus chime in please

    Bad master has my vote. It doesn't have to leak to be bad. If you have a leak elsewhere, it should be easy to find.
