Hello all. I am diving into the front end (unstable and makes banging noise when going in and out of drive ways), including ball joints, bushings, tie rods, and bearings. Where do I find the needle bearing? How do I know if the needle bearing needs to be replaced? It is a Dodge/Mitsubishi discontinued part. The part is available in the Ukraine: http://autopartmaster.com/en/?actio...50466&price_type=r&price_margin=

Also, the boot on the driver's side axle is broken. The boots cost the same as the spindle axle. So I will replace the axle (both side as one has gone the other will too). Do the axle's just pop out of the transfer case or do I need "the special tool?"

I have the service manual.
