my front wheel is making weird noises. jacked front up and tugged on wheel and it felt like a wheel bearing was loose but it was only moving at the botom of the steering nuckle (barfield joint?) . does this mean the lower king pin is shagged and how hard is it to fix?

Hehe Its birfield

If there is play its the king pin bearings, you can get a kit and it takes about an evening per side if your not in a hurry.
