Talk about spending money you don't have, this is turning into EXPENSIVE rapidly. I have a couple of bad ball joints and a bent front tie rod connector as well as a leaking seal in my passenger side axle. Considering that I have 300K plus on the truck, it's time for a complete rebuild. I got on rock auto with some of my tax refund and ordered most of what I needed in the way of ball joints, tie rod ends, bearings and seals as well as new u-joints for the axles. Next step, disassembly. I took lots of pictures here.

Then I find I need new rotors, and the inner axles are scored where the seals ride. Plus another $340 at the Driveline shop to replace the bearings and seals inside the housing and put in a new pinion yoke that is leaking. Oh well, when I get done, it will be done right.
