Had the ole girl in for a new muffler yesterday. The drivers side tire is wearing on the inside. Looks like she needs some parts for the closed knuckle front end. Looking for suggestions on where to locate parts, tips and procedures (i.e. a write up with photos) on how to replace/repair this problem.

Looking at my 1968 Chevrolet Truck Chassis Service Manual Series 10-60 it has a procedure description but nothing for photos or much detail. Is this a pretty straight forward procedure to replace the bearings and cups on the top and bottom of the closed knuckle?

Thanks
