1996 4x4 Front u-joints

Just replaced front u-joints, rotors, and calipers on my 1996 F150, 4x4 extended cab.
The previous rotors lasted about 70,000 miles but it reached a point where the brake pedal was pulsating and I figured it was time to put on some new ones.
I just keep bolting in new parts and the old truck keeps rolling.
Thanks,
Gene

I have the 302 v8 engine in there.
U joints and ball joints at this point, are all greaseable.
The engine is still tight, with no oil leakage.
The majority of my work over the years has been the front brakes(pads and rotors).
Thanks,
Gene
