Yeah I got power steering and its all stock. Its not really a workout, if your talking about resistance.

I got all 4 sets of new bearings for the front for about $30 at Napa, but my company gets a discount there. 10% i think. Cleaned the hub, packed em and preloaded em.

While I was in there, I also cleaned and lubed up the hub locks. Mine were horrible bc when i bought it the bolts were loose, had no lock washers, and there was no gasket, so it was full of dried dirt and grease. All you need for that is some gasket maker, grease, something to clean with i used brake cleaner, tons of paper towels, and time. Also cleaned up my brakes, my pads and rotors were fine.

oh and about that haynes manual, i have one too and wish i had my money back. its not always right and often vague. ie. it leaves out one of the parts in the drums and i had to start over bc i had never done it before. it also says to preload the bearings to 50 ftlbs or until the bearings bind...mine binded way before 50 ftlbs - 50 doesnt seem reasonable to me, i think its a misprint. someone else maybe able to enlighten us more.
