Cool score(s). Yes, tires have date codes, if you're interested in knowing their age. Also, my experience with Ford trucks is that the ball joints seem to need replacing after a bit. Without solid ball joints, alignment really suffers. The new ones can be better quality than OEM and can have grease nipples. It's a good idea to check the tie rod end thingie on the pitman arm while you're in there. If that were to come all the way loose, your tie rods would become unattached to your steering column.
