Nice video. One word of advice- Never use a pickle fork to remove a tie rod or ball joint unless replacing it. As you can see the rubber boot was destroyed. The boot holds in the grease and keeps out dirt and water

Absolutely Euonymus1980! Thanks for pointing this out. I've since replaced the boot and didn't mention the reason behind using the separator anywhere in the video. The tried and true hammer method usually works...unfortunately, I had to result to the ball joint separator on the tie rod ball joint. Luckily, the lower ball joint cooperated and I didn't have to replace two boots. Thanks for watching.

What brand hub did you use? Noticed a National Bearing.

Sue Slate Hi Sue, please take a look at the links in the description below the video. I believe the brand name is Dura-Go. You should be able to see a link that will take you directly to the Hub I used. I also have a link shown for the Hub kit, which comes with bearing as well. I've found that the front hubs are not available in the big box parts stores like auto zone, oreillys, Napa and advanced auto parts. They are considered dealer only items by the big box parts stores. The only place to find them is on Amazon and a handful of other online stores. Amazon is about half the price of every other place I have found the hubs available online. Let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks for checking out the video.
