Alvin;
Pictures are great. Very helpful. I don't have a drill press though.
Dave;
I had the drivers side apart this afternoon. The ball was not worn and the spring was in good shape. I cleaned everything up and reassembled. I then lubed it with the grease gun. I'll do the other side some afternoon this week when I have some time.
I got the impression that having the original ends on the truck was dangerous. Right now I don't see any need to change the tie rod ends. I'll probably just hold on to the new ends and king pins in case it starts to get sloppy at some point.
