    Its a bit technical and will require using a dial indicator to set the back lash and a torque wrench for the crush sleeve. Your best bet is to have it done professionally. If you don't get it just right it will whine and be really annoying

    I replaced the u joints on myrear drive shaft ran a little smoother started feeling some resistance from the front end like it wasnt freely rolling slight vibration coming from under driver side floorboard so I'm going to get the u joints for the front drive shaft and go from there as for the rear axle whine geuss ill have to live with it for now how long u think it will whine oh I smelled something burning yesterday before the the resistance in the front end started its a 1999 f150 4x4 xlt 4.6l 205,570mi all stock

    The parts replacement isn’t bad but setting the pinion and ring gear properly as well as adjusting the gear lash is all important or your noise will be back. Check you tube

    Do you have manual locking hubs or shift on the fly ones with the knob on the dash ?
