Well, if you have never changed it, it's due. Just pull it apart...You will need a 17mm, 13mm 12-point, snap ring pliers, and a hub nut tool (2 1/16" I think). Sometimes the drive falange can be a pain to get off/on if it has never been removed, so a dead blow hammer may be needed.
Just pull the wheel, brake caliper, snap ring and two spacers, drive flange, two hub nuts, hub/rotor, and spindel. The spindel does not have to come off, but you may as well look things over....Everything can be sealed back up with gasket goo. Be sure to use blue loctite.
I use 90w oil, but you can also get the grease packs sold by AB, Rovers north, Nathan, etc...
You will have to look up all the tourque specs...First side may take you an hour/hour and a half to rebuild, seconds side will be half that... I can get em done in about 20 minutes or less, start to finish.
You won't leard unless you try. Just take your time. It's hard to f'''k up.
After writing this, I forgot to ask what year your truck is....This applys to 97-mid 99
