Duane: The front knuckles are torqued to 25-27 ftlbs torque in rotation. Use one of the top bearing retainer plate bolt heads for this. It's a 3/4"socket. This torque only applies if you are using the top brass bushing, if you are using a bearing like the bottom then you need to shim to remove end float and then adjust for about 25-50inlbs torque is what I use. But make sure that the bearings and cups are seated fully and the felt wiper is removed. The ujoint numbers are in the PDf but they should be napa # PUJ305 or precision 305,Neapco 2-1400. Try these but they may have been superceeded by another number. Terry
