9 bolt trouble ?

Do you have the part numbers to order from Autzone (bearings and seals), just thought I get the parts in for any future needs :-)

How hard was the rebuild?

Auto Zone Part # Set-9.
You'll need to replace the seals also, available seperately timken part # 710179 for the passenger side (9.99) and 224255 (3.99) for the driver's side.

Save yourself untold grief by NOT going to autozone and order everything from here.

As far as difficulty? the only tough part was writing the check for $438 for labor.
Duanne rebuilt it and said it was relatively easy, not 7.5" 10 bolt easy, but nothing special was needed for tools.
I had him install that pinion bearing shim in place of the crush sleeve. My research shows that is prone to problems with pinion bearing failure.
