[updated:LAST EDITED ON 03-Dec-02 AT 11:50 PM (EST)]Great info thank you! I did find the bearings, races, and seals for this setup.

Two things:

Shims... How do I know what the proper setup is concerning bearing tension?

and...

You mention cushions that are inside the axle housing that cushion the king pin end... My truck axle is missing these! Can these be located or should I fab something out of urethane to suffice? You help is appreciated!

Great idea with the pins...I'll do that. The king pins look and feel fine. If I ever do need them would Dana 30 ones work?

Thanks again for the info!
