Moog ball joints from Ford Parts and Ford Diesel Parts at Powerstroke Shop

Hubs.....your talking the main beraing hub assembly, correct? Not the lockers?

I just replaced mine and bought them from Ford. The units are VIN specific so when you purchase those make sure you are getting the correct part.

Might want to check with DirectFordParts.com. They are a site sponsor and have saved me money in the past. Site is a little tough to use so I would just send them an email with your vin number and parts wanted, I think they can save you some money.

i went with powerstrokeshop.com which is also a site sponser. I got the whole front end rebuild kit and i think that is the way to go. its half the cost as this kit than to buy everything seperate. if your only doing one side, buy the kit anyway and youll have everything you need later on. Make sure you ask ben for new lug nuts, hell give them to ya for free.

Also, the parts in thier kit isnt OEM parts either, its moog BJs and timken bearings. It comes with all the new seals and o rings from ford
