Lower balls are brand new moogs and uppers are getting done this weekend i grease the piss outta this truck Any and all help would be great thanks. Also i have been looking, can i just replace the bearings or do i need to do the whole hub assembly?
Could be bearings or CV joint(s).... Jack the front of the truck up, have someone grab the wheel at 3 and 9 o'clock and rock it back and fourth and 6 and 12 o'clock and rock it. While they're doing this, stick you head behind the wheel and look at the back of the hub to see if there is any play. If there is it's the hub, if not, look to your cv joints.
