front axle ujoints
The ujoints in the front axle shafts are replaceable, correct? Mine have an incredible amount of play. Probably where my popping and binding is coming from.

Yep. Pull the wheel, the axle nut, the caliper, the rotor and then the hub. Pull the half shaft out and then press the u joint out of it. The spicer replacement part number is 5-760X.

the spicer number is actually 5-297x.
the 760's are hard to get and discontinued from some catalogs and cost twice as much when anyone can get them.
