Another place often overlooked on MVs is the pitman arm ball as well as any other components like drag link etc.
The pitman arm ball end is often worn with flat spots and the bearings wear. Sometimes these are overly loose as well.
As Rob stated, things like steering and brakes are the most important.
Loss of control can mean loss of your life.
Do it right.
