Dan the Gear Man™ Service Tip:  When removing the tie rod and drag link ends from the steering knuckles, use the QT1200 Tie Rod Separator instead of a "pickle fork" tie rod wedge.  The QT1200 is the same type of tool recommended by GM to safely separate the steering linkage from the knuckle without damaging the seal, seat, or stud.

*Dan the Gear Man™ Service Tip: The upper king pins themselves usually do not need replacement.  If yours are worn or rough, order the QK4550 kit from our Common Front Axle Parts Page which includes both upper king pins, a ¾" drive impact socket/hex bit, and high strength Threadlocker.  The Dana recommended king pin torque is 600 ft-lbs.





 

QU40293GM
Spindle Kit

Dan the Gear Man™ Service Tip: If you are experiencing erratic steering and the steering linkage is in good shape, check your axle-u-joints for binding. Place the front axle on jack stands. Unlock the steering column and turn the steering wheel all the way to  either direction. Lock the hubs in and rotate the tires. If an axle u-joint is binding, the tires will not rotate freely without moving the steering wheel. Also, inspect around the u-joint seals. If you see a rusty looking powder on any seal, that u-joint requires replacement.

Axle U-Joint Kits Choose from either hot-forged greaseable,  or PREMIUM COLD_FORGED non-greaseable and cold-forged greaseable axle u-joints.  These are the best production u-joints of their type that we have ever found.  For more information, pricing, and to order, go to our Common Front Axle Parts Page.

Optional:

Using case spreader &  Dead Blow Sledge to install a differential.

Inner Axle Shaft Seal Kits Whenever you remove the front axle shafts, inspect the shafts and axle tubes for any signs of differential fluid leakage.  It's a lot cheaper and easier to replace the seals than rebuilding your diff after it blows up due to oil starvation!  Differential removal is required.  These are tricky seals to install, but you can do it with one of these kits!  A differential case spreader is definitely recommended but not absolutely required for differential removal/installation on Dana/Spicer Model 44 and 60 axles.  We also find a dead-blow sledge essential to reinstall the differential. Extra seals, differential cover gaskets, and RTV sealant are available separately.  Call us for information on additional tools required to disassemble the axle. Made in U.S.A. except some seals imported.
