I need a list or manual of original parts for a 2003 ford f150. i am replacing the drive shaft, universal joint and i am making sure that the parts i have are right.

SOURCE: Replacing front drive axle universal joints.

remove front wheel brakes,rotors, axle nut,remove the four bolts on the bake side of your unit bearing using one of the 4 bolts removed from the unit bearing (also knowin as wheel bearing) go get a half dozen of the same bolt only 1 to 2 inchs longer theard them into the unit bearing from the back side and start beating. the unit bearing is a sob to get out but will come out with time once you get it out pull out your axle shaft replace the ujoint and reassemble anti seize everything as you re assemble it

check the U-joints by grabbing the drive shaft and try to make it move from side to side or top to bottom.It is much easier to do this if the vehicle is in the air and no weight on the axle.If it does move replace that U-joint,but if you are going to replace one then I would do both since you will have the drive shaft out any way.Also check to see if the shaft weight is still there,but I doubt it has came off its pretty rare.

find u a used driveshaft in the salvage yard just make sure you get the correct driveshaft for your turck

Usually there are two clamps that come off, then the joint caps are pressed out of the drive shaft.
