Front Axle Rebuild (ugh)

[Shep59]

I guess I need to rebuild my knuckles on my 9/74 Fj40. I remember grease on the shoes way back then.

So, can anyone offer a reputable place to order a rebuild kit? there are so many vendors maybe you guys that have recently gone through this process can provide me with some much needed wisdom.

I certainly don't look forward to it, but it is what it is...thanks!

I get my parts from @cruiseroutfit in Utah.

It sounds like you need to find or download a FSM.
