Comments: Thank you for posting the ball joint/axle/brake forum on your website. Wish I had found it earlier before ruining one $60 axle seal when trying to install it. Making the "special tool" allowed us to perfectly place the seal without any trouble. Thanks again!

Comments: Thank you so much for all the information. I just recently bought a 2000 f250 turbo diesel and within the first week i had to replace the ball joints, seals, hub, and axle shaft. The ball joint write up helped me out so much and save me a tonnnn of money by doing it myself.
Thanks again John

Comments: First off, I just wanted to say thank you. Your site is very informative, I'm very capable of doing any automotive service,repairs,& rebuilds myself but I'm a bit hesitant to jump into the issue im having with my truck....... #1-There is a oil leak coming from the top of the engine but its not coming from the(hpop) plugs,or hoses "just lots of oil build-up on valley area" #2-when i change the oil it has a rough idle for aprox. the first 2-3,000 miles or until oil is broke down. I'm praying that its not the injectors ,is there anything you can suggest?
