They are remarkably easy to rebuild. You can get the bearings and races at any good parts house, they can also cross reference the seals by the bearing cone and race part numbers. As for shims..you can cut them out of rolled metal shim stock if needed or use extra gaskets or various gasket thicknesses. Usually the shims will remain unchanged and be sure to keep the shim packs seperated so they don't get mixed up. I have done the rebuilds on the bench and in the truck! On the bench you can do in a couple hours, it take 4-5 hours if the box is still in the PW though!!
