I've spent my weekend (when not playing at the beach) reading up on about how to maintain my incoming 80. Lot's to learn (like I need to do a full knuckle job and that's not the same as a front wheel bearing repack, duh....)
Simon - how did your front axle job work out in the end?

Any ideas where I should go for this? It's got me worried that nobody (except the guys on this board) know what they are doing. Perhaps N.S.O.R. center?
I guess the dealer but even then when having the truck inspected the "tech" said they rarely ever tear down them down this far.
The main reason I just thought repacking the "front hubs" was all I to do is because that's all my previous mechanic told me was required.
I don't feel like doing this myself as it's too much out of the gate. Perhaps doing the breather hose extension.
Dealer? or shop around trying to find a good mechanic?
