You'll have to let me know how that goes. I think I have to do mine in the near future, as well.:doh:

lots of documentation on the net about it...

the price of the ball joints (moog or spicer) are about 24-30 for
the top (or is it the bottom) and its 38-50 for the other ball joint...
depending on where you buy from oreily, autozone etc.

you need the 4wd hub oring and the outter axle seal... the oring
is about 5 bucks and the axle seal is about 30 (for the pair)

ive been hearing it for awhile (ever since i replaced the front
sway bar bushings)...guess when i blew the passenger side drop link
sway bar bushing i probably blew the ball joint too...last night
when bart drove his FIRST 6.0 (mine) i could really feel the ball joint
bagging in the floor board.

I like the 6.0 and Don's gives a great first impression.

cept for the ball joint ;)


i was impressed w/ how well barts 7.3 performed...it felt as good
as a 6.0 (stock)...it would be interesting to see how they matched up
in a stop light to stop light run.

i had however forgotten how QUIET the 6.0l is compared to the 7.3 ;)

LOL, yes, they are scary loud on the passenger's side.

:( I have spent $$$$ making my truck run like a stock 6.0. I need to get after some new mods soon.

Yes, plus mine is extra loud for some reason.

I think it is a great idea, and come next year, we will be in the Fort Worth area, and hope to see as many of you as possible.
I do have a question...

Originally we planned on taking a across the USA trip in late April of this year, but because of health reasons we had to postpone the trip until next year, and what I have been seeing last month and this month is very bad storms across most of the midwest. Is this normal for this time of the year?
