Default rebuilding front drive shaft

Where can you order the joints and center ball from online? It looks like advanced auto doesn't have them in stock but still have them listed on there site?

If you get stuck for the parts these have both standard and heavy duty kits including the center bearings.

Awesome this is exactly what I was looking for. Also is there a big difference between the HG and regular kit??

RockAuto.com was the cheapest place I could find the stuff to do mine and still get the quality parts I wanted. Looking back, I wish I had used the centering ball that has a zerk fitting for greasing, but at the time I was not aware that this was even available. At least all my U-Joints can now be greased.

The heavy duty is slightly heavier needle rollers with metal protected grease seals as opposed to standard plastic/rubber grease seals. I used the heavy duty kit 'cos I'm 'ham' fisted when in a hurry but using a V8 engine I think the HD kit would be preferable. The center bearings are exactly the same in both kits. If you go to JGS4x4 check first they are for the US market model which I'm sure they will be. The GKN make is the original factory fitted make used by Landrover.
