I now have 4.90 gears in the rear. The front axle should be arriving tomorrow.

Where did you buy these ball joints?

Where did you buy these ball joints?

Through my shop, a company called Worldpac. I don’t think they sell to the public. From what I understand 555 is the best option available.

Can you share the part numbers? I'll try and look them up and see, if you don't mind me asking how much you paid? You can pm me that as some people think is too much info, just want to have a ball park price.

Open source my friend. I can tell you WORLDPAC is a big company and I grabbed up the last set they had.

Uppers list out at $65, I payed $25.
Lowers at $70, I payed $30.

Thanks man! I appreciate the help!

Need some help before I rip into the front of this thing. My front diff did not come with the inner axle on the right side. Will the original work with the AWD diff?

Nope.you need the one piece pass. Side inner shaft

One peace? The shaft that I’ve seen in the AWD diff unbolts at the CV just like the one in my truck. I’m still learning this rig, am I missing something.

It’s the same part number so I’ll give it a shot.
