[QUOTE="52merc, post: 16085650, member: 197"] I wasn't originally going to change out the cross-axis joints, but when I got everything apart there were several bad ones, so I ended up doing all of them. After the fact, I'm glad I did - one less thing to worry about. I got the bearings on Amazon for a good price, Timken Set 49 (you need qty-2 to do both sides). They are the same as what I pulled out and less expensive than the Ford or Motorsport ones. FTBR claims that sometimes the hub can get damaged when you pull it out of the bearing, but I didn't have any problems. Just make sure you take the retaining ring out first before you pull the bearing out of the knuckle. If you are going to do the bearings yourself, keep one of the old ones to use as a fixture to press the new ones in. Just grind a little off the OD so they will slide freely into the bearing bore. That way they will not get stuck in the bore when you seat the new bearings. [/QUOTE]
