    CUCV vs excursion, F350, or other pick up for bug out and snow vehicle.

Thier great trucks and I would recommend buying one for the parts value alone if 50/55 doesn't bother you.:-P

If you are serious about fixing it you can have an offroad specialty shop cut and turn the knuckles to reset the castor and point the pinion wherever...
