truckernix, this is the
illustration I referenced. I also used Denny Graham's
pictures as a guide. My bushing was paper thin and gone on one side. It looks to have been seated to the top of the tube as in the picture. I was able to find a bushing on Ebay that is a supposed fit.
Now, after having things apart, the front u-joint has some wear where it was rubbing the bushing. Also, are those joints supposed to have a lot of play on the trunion? I think I found a replacement but am reluctant to shell out $150 at this point. I'm already digging farther than I wanted to. My intentions were to replace seals to curb the worst leaks. That and I really don't plan on using the truck for more than 500 miles a year.
