Axle seals

[hawkdriver]

I am replacing my ball joints again since I went the cheap route last year and used low grade joints instead of Moogs. Got the Moogs here and am ready to do it but I have a question. Do you think my axle seals, which where replaced last year when I did the job the first time, will be ok if I'm careful pulling the axles out? I'll put new dust seals in the axle housing and o-rings on the hubs though. What do you think??

They should be. I usually can make kine last through at least one ball joint switch.

Thanks Dave. I'll give her a whirl this weekend. At least the local dealer has 4 in stock just in case I need them. He had hub o-rings, and axle seals waiting for me too. Wow, parts I really need, in stock. What a concept.

yup, thats why I always go to my parts store. He is the only one in northwest suburbs that carry's powerstroke parts in house. I mean you cant drive 10 feet without seeing one of our trucks around here. why wouldn't you have this stuff in stock?
