Replacing my upper and lower ball joints. Does anyone have a links or tips about the procedure. Someone mentioned an easy way to remove the front bearings on a 4x4.......

 

i just did front bearings and they were no trouble at all.
alot easier then the last gen truck thats for sure. i took out the four bolts holdig the bearing hub on the knuckle, and i took a chiesel, to separate the hub, working around the surface of the knuckle, pulling the bearing out little each time.don't forget the ABS sensor, pretty easy really. i am too going to be doing the ball joints, and i have a c clamp type press, so i am just hoping it is big enough to do the job.i don't see a problem with those either.

 

I just did u joints and ball joints last weekend, not to bad of a job.I had one u joint that was a pain but other than that it's pretty straight forward. As pullin Hard mentioned don't drop the wheel bearing and dislodge the abs line. Make sure you have a ball joint press to get them in and out (I have one of these, http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPage...f+Loan-a-Tool).

Good Luck,
