Should I replace the rod bearings at this time? How can I tell they need replacement?
Is this work difficult? I have not been able to find instructions on this forum or Clark's Garage.
Thank you for any information you can provide.

That would be wise. I wasnt originally planning on it, but once you get the pan off, you'd be looking at at all that stuff. I did the bearings, a bunch of suspension work, inner and outer tie rods. All that stuff was original. I figured since I was there... As for the work, with the right tools no it aint too difficult. I say this because this isnt my daily driver, so I wasnt under the gun to finish it in one weekend. I did mine with help from this forum. There are a few threads on that topic. Just search it out...
