Lubed, or tried to anyway, all the zerks on the Hoe. Both lca bj fittings just came right off. I got them back on, but I think they might've been clogged. All the grease just shot out along the sides of the openings on the zerks. I already know I'm gonna be doing upper and lower control arms. I don't think I'd want to bother drilling out and pressing in bjs. F@#$ that. Still need to do both front axles too--AGAIN.

Just replaced my PF halfshaft last weekend. The flange that bolts to the front diff cracked straight through. I’ll have to get a better pic but the ****** FAILED! lol

That sux. I don't even have 4wd anymore. Front prop shaft was hitting the ds inner tubes on my headers, so unfortuneatly it had to go. That's why I haven't been in a rush to fix the axles. I already replaced both about 2 yrs ago already. I really hate doing stuff more then once.

Yeah, I think that's what helped me make that decision.

Speaking of. My passenger side just got delivered today :) assuming the rest of my kit comes in today. Install will likely start tomorrow and finish Wednesday. Most likely all take place Wednesday.
