I am not picky I am a full fledged flat out fanactic and it seems to get worse every day.Just got done doing tie rods,center rod,steering damper.lower ball joints. track rod joints.bearing housing bushings.brake rotors. ate pads, repacked wheel bearings,new tites on 500 SE yes I know it not a diesel. but has same front end as my SD both being 126's ,when I got it klunked and wandered. now runs very straight and can take hands off wheel for long strecth witch is probably not that good an idea.When I get time will write about doing track rod joints and bearing housing bushing really quiet simple if your front track rod bushings are in good shape you can do the rear joints with out removeing springs ,took me long afternoon to do both sides ,going to do SD next .I'll bet there are a lot of 126's with worn track rod joints if the boot is cracked they are bad or are going to be quickly.......
