I feel for ya Jay. I was there doing the same thing about 3 months ago on my F250. Mine is a 96 though and has the TTB front axle. I had to do upper and lower ball joints, axle and drive shaft U-joints, brakes, inner and outer wheel bearings, and I converted the auto hubs to manual hubs after a couple "incidents" where the automatic hubs didn't lock in. I also had a problem with the bolts on the TTB axle pivot brackets working loose and breaking. It has a 4" lift on it, and I think the 4 7/16" bolts in each bracket couldn't take the stress of how I use it/load it. So I drilled the brackets and cross member out to 5/8" and used grade 8 bolts and stover flanged locknuts. I got bolts that a shoulder just long enough to go through all the pieces without any loads on the threads (I hate that), lots of red loctite and a 3/4 breaker bar, no worries now. Was a little hard to get the bolts and nuts in there with the 7.3's oil pan only an inch above the cross member. But, the factory ball joints lasted to 285,000 miles, must have been pretty good stuff.

Today's Featured Article - On the Road with Dave Gohl: Auction Musings - by Dave Gohl. I was thinking the other day about all the auctions I've been to in the last few years. There've been many. Some have been very good, some have been well, disappointing to say the least. But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
