What am I missing in this knuckle joint on the front driveshaft?! Bought the truck with it already removed. Thought it would just need some new u-joints. The ball joint inside the knuckle looks to be falling apart or missing a part. Any help would be appreciated.

My credo
Drive it, Break it, Fix it, REPEAT !
Its a cardin joint, I have a double cardin joint front driveshaft in my truck.. instead of going through the aggravation of finding what you need, its not that expensive to buy a new one. I've broken my share of driveshafts, so I purchased one from Amazon and haven't been sorry for it. There's a lot of places that sell them, I've found that Amazon has the best price for me. It's just a thought. Best of luck.

Thank you very much! I’ll check Amazon.
