Got a loud roaring noise on pass front wheel. Mechanic says 200 for one wheelbearing replacement. So if I remove and bring him the knuckle it's 50 bucks(cool). I only have a bent manual for my 93 cab and with that I can figure out how to remove and install but I need torque values. Can anyone take the time out to list, email these? If not no prob. I also have to do plugs on this 6cyl. Just got my plug tool in but not sure whut kinda plug is best. I've always used copper in my previous vdubs. But everyone is trying to sell me iridium plugs. Any suggestion?

Thanks
