As stated before. Manny is the man to contact. He sales a nice kit. I have two of the knuckles. But you need a machine shop to make up the parts. I put one of Mannie's kits in a friends 78 GMC. In that case it was a good FINANCIAL choice. 3 CV joints, and 3 ball joints were bad. Left A frame .was cracked. And both knuckles were damaged be on repair. If you just need bearings, lower ball joints, and some CV boots. Then get the parts, and reworked grease able knuckles from Applied, or Dave Lenzi is the best choice in my opinion. As you'll never out live those bearings/knuckles. Yes, the 1 ton unit has a life time lubed bearing till it fails. I like being able to grease my bearings every 50,000 miles with a grease gun. And the 1 ton has the A frames not parallel to each other. The original GM designed system held up for 39 to 44 years with very few issues. That's a true example of many life times.
