I need to replace my u-joints and oil seals on my 90 YJ's front axle. But before I dive in got a few questions:
- Looking in my Quadratec catalog all the seals and u-joints are listed but no bearings for the axle the only thing listed is the hub assembly is this what the axle rides on?? . Looks like a sealed unit to me (6.00). If this is the case is this a high fail item?? Then it has inner and outer wheel bearings listed for my year Jeep. What do I need to replace, the hub assembly has lugs on it and the rotor that the bearings fit in have lugs??????? Or is there different setups and I need to take it apart to see what I have?
- How do the u-joints come off there are no retainer clips the caps are sealed???
- How are the axles attached to the differential???
I have replaced wheel bearings in a rear wheel drive but never a 4X4 is there anything else I need to be careful of. I am a pretty good backyard mechanic I have replaced my drive train, Motor, suspension all with the help of this group. Thanks in advance
