I really want to thank everybody who has helped me recently try to get my truck doing right whether directly or indirectly. I replaced the front locking hubs and needle bearings without knowing much about it at first. I saved alot of money and hopefully got everything put back together right. Time will tell if I did it right if the truck doesn't vibrate anymore and no wheels fall off. Anyway, thanks again everybody with the diagnosis and tips on repair.
That is great, give us a report after you have driven it some..always nice to hear a good ending.
In the upper left hand corner, There is an icon if you hold your mouse over it you can add to someone's reputation. So if you were given some good pointers it is always nice to give them some reps!
Cool. Thanks senix I didn't know about that. I will do that.
P.s. When I took the driver side hub off the needle bearings just fell out. What should I look for to know if I should replace the shaft?

Check the shaft for any scoring or grooves. If none present and it appears the metal is of normal color then I would still use it.
