I had a u-joint I could hear squeaking but wanted to wait till snow to replace it. It had other plans and busted the ear off the outer shaft.
The question is this:
Can I replace the axle(s) without upgrading the front diff or do I need to do it all at once (cost is a huge consideration)? Where can I order the parts? I'm looking now with no luck (either OE or larger). I was going to swap to solid axle but cost prohibits, plus this is only a firewood and OMFG weather truck...
