Default Need Part Number & Advice

Just got back from the local dealer (have a front end noise) and was told I need to replace the front drivers side hub assembly and u-joints. This is on a 2006 Mega cab 4wd. I have part of the part number for the hub assembly (ends in 955-AA) but nothing for the u-joints. They didn't give me the sheet with the part numbers on them. Can someone look them up for me? Also, how difficult of a job is this to do? I have the service manual and it doesn't look too bad. I was quoted $863.02 part and labor

Thanks,

Mike

Not sure about the hub, but I've done U-Joints on my old Dakota and they weren't all that bad, but you do need help, and might need a tool to press them out. Big auto parts stores may be able to lend you the tool.

Are they U-Joints or CV joints?

5179 955AA for the hub and the u-joint is 5086 665AC

And it not really that bad of a job.
